The Wicked Witch of the West was described as "melting away like brown sugar" when Dorothy threw water on her.

This is what happens to the people who try to troll and trigger you when you throw a sense of humor their way.

Laughter is spell-breaking.

Imagine believing in the existence of businesses that do NOT virtue signal.

Job interviews are like 1st dates.

Tell the other person why you're interested in THEM

Don't go on & on about how your ex wasn't enough.

They already know that your ex wasn't enough or you wouldn't be out looking.

They want you to connect with THEM.

Happy Birthday, Pres.

The feeling of powerlessness is one of the greatest enemies of good.

Almost no one feels a greater need to manipulate, control, and enslave than those who are terrified by the thought of their own weaknesses and intimidated by the strengths of others.

Making points and making solutions are two different things.

Wow! Never heard of this!

Rely more on logic than labels.

The ability to slap name tags on people you disagree with isn’t a substitute for thinking critically.

Fewer people are more easily manipulated than those who feel the need to be taken seriously at all times.

When you can laugh at yourself, you can liberate yourself.

Never trust anyone who tells you that your curiosities are unimportant.

Here's a video of me riffing on why you need to learn how to laugh at yourself if you want to be able to think for yourself.

Definitely trying to curate some good resources on this.

If you can't learn from someone who has flaws, how will you ever teach yourself anything?

Hey #BitcoinSV supporters and builders, what are some of your favorite articles/videos on the Metanet and the value-proposition of microtransactions?

It's good to learn how to create value for others even if you don't think you need them, but this is even more true when you want others to accommodate you.

As Zig Ziglar once said "the best way to get what you want is to help others get what they want.

As you gradually and strategically accumulate leverage, you'll increase the amount of freedom you have to do the kind of work you love.

Your dreams will always benefit from your commitment to personal growth.

If your first job is not your dream job, don't see that as a failure.

Say "yes" to the best opportunities you can find and use those experiences to transform yourself into a more knowledgeable, skillful, creative, and respected version of yourself.

The trick is to not to see your dreams as something that the world owes you, but as a responsibility you have to your own growth.

Most dreams require cooperation/collaboration from others.

Think strategically about how to create wins for people you need.

The higher your preferences, the more leverage you need.

When you're first starting out, your leverage is relatively low.

You can increase leverage by developing new skills, expanding your network, building your portfolio, & acquiring experience.

Success comes down to two things:

Preferences & Leverage.

Preferences = Your priorities and principles. These are your personal desires and values.

Leverage = Your power to create scenarios in which your preferences are accommodated or actualized.

You can have a positive impact on the world no matter what you do for a career.

Your everyday life is a mission field.

I've never sympathized with the belief that being Satoshi was inconsistent with being a flawed person.

Whenever people celebrate because of some scenario in which CSW seems to be caught lying, it always strikes me as an exercise in missing the point.

"What the world needs, my friend, is not new methods of instituting things, but abolition of restrictions upon opportunity." -Voltairine de Cleyre

You don't need to be a comedian to have a sense of humor.

You can spend most of your life being straight-faced and sober while still possessing the ability to laugh at yourself.

It's possible to be serious without taking yourself seriously all the time.

I think BSV would still be successful under those circumstances.

I also don't think this conclusion requires one to believe that Craig is an irrelevant factor.
