Just recently I saw a post on LinkedIn about a guy who was diagnosed with cancer and he just received one of the worst feedback a doctor can give you. It's untreatable and he has approximately one year to live. He is married and has two kids. A 5-month-old son and a 7-year-old son.

Stop doing these things:
Don't lie to yourself. You know what you want.
Don't be jealous of someone you don't even want to aspire to be like.
Don't take your blessings, no matter how small, for granted.

Don't argue with people who…
Ray Dalio posted a very interesting article today. It is very insightful from the financial perspective and very frightful from the peace-on-earth perspective.

I'm a big fan of the movie The Matrix and one of my favourite scenes is the following part:
When Neo says “There is no spoon”, it signifies his evolution to a consciousness beyond logic, where anything is possible.

Maybe it's easer to explain first what a Fungible Token is. It is a token, like Bitcoin, which can be traded…
The first time I heard about NFTs was in a podcast hosted by Tim Ferris in April 2021. Tim was talking to Vitalik Buterin (co-founder of Ethereum) and had his good friend Naval Ravikant join as a guest. So even though I am tech-savvy, I didn't understand the concept right away. After the podcast, I…
