Harvard MBA, ex-Bridgewater Associates, Goldman Sachs | Speaker, Coach, Entrepreneur | Connecting ambitious overachievers to a deeper purpose in their career
We live in an abundant universe, limited only by our ability to imagine.
Bitcoin is a numerator of abundance built upon a finite denominator that cannot be debased.
3. Give your full attention to the speaker.
Set aside distractions, and make eye contact to show your engagement.
This creates a space for the speaker to be more open, and share deeper feelings.
Those shared feelings can be great insights for you.

I thought it was really interesting that the existing bitcoin’s were excluded from the collateral pool. Might the new MacroStrategy LLC entity be looking to self-custody their keys instead of using a custodian? Or maybe there is some other plan...?

Kristin Neff is one of the world's foremost experts on self-compassion and she recommends the following in times of overwhelm.
First, place your hands over your heart and breathe deeply to foster heart-mind coherence.

Humans can do incredible things.
The Pyramids.
Flight.
Going to the moon.
Nuclear power.
But creating a money system that no one can corrupt might be our most impressive and improbable achievement.
You can try to go at it alone.
But you really don’t have to.
When you have a tribe at your back you’ll find you way quicker and be able to go farther down it.
My ultimate mission as a human soul is simply to “return home”. This battle to empower my fellow humans with

is simply a means to that end. So few will ever understand this..
If you think that your path to success is only paved by acquiring information, think twice.
The key to success isn't just about putting in the hours.
It's about finding the right balance between quiet reflection and active application.

Back at the hedge fund when I couldn't possibly imagine having a baby.
Now I do.
I can see how this has changed how I approach my work.
I can't be travelling around the country for this and that.

Moments of stillness:
1. Unlock untapped creativity.
2. Strengthen emotional intelligence.
3. Foster deep connection with yourself.

great meeting you last night! From one reformed Buffet-disciple to another. Excited to keep chatting flow of funds and hedge-fund game theory implications of bitcoinization with you over time. Thank you for all you do to educate the community. 🙏
“prosecutors...should not hide behind the claim that they are just enforcing the law. These cases represent calls to action to fix the laws to prevent these tragedies in future. Any prosecutor not up to the task of lobbying for such changes does not deserve to hold their office.”
@IIICapital
@mgtowfrank
Buffett had it almost right... “This imaginary person out there -- Mr. Market -- he's kind of a drunken psycho. Some days he gets very enthused, some days he gets very depressed. And when he get really enthused, you sell to him and if he gets depressed you buy from him.”
This mantra does three things:
1. Anchors you in the present moment.
2. Acknowledges our shared human experience.
3. And cultivates self-compassion through positive self-talk
This simple act can shift your entire outlook, opening you up to new possibilities.
@danheld
Enjoyed the thread. Whilst somewhat different than generating yield on your existing coins do you ever sell 5-10% out of the money BTC puts to generate premium whilst continuing to basically DCA purchase if exercised?
“Bitcoin is the biggest peaceful protest the world has ever seen. With more than a hundred million users quietly opting out of the current financial system into a new one—based not on war and oil but on non-violence and math—we are at the beginning of radical change.”
@gladstein
1/ A media outlet asked me to answer the question:
"Is the crypto revolution failing?"
Once they saw my response, they declined to publish.
They thought I would say no, but I said yes 🧵
Then recite:
“This is a moment of suffering.
Suffering is part of life.
May I be kind to myself in this moment.
May I give myself the compassion I need.”
@GRANTGILLIAMBTC
@KPMG_Canada
Agreed. Reads like pandering to crypto/web3 clients and prospects and ESG virtue signaling. They also clearly haven't paid attention to Gensler/SEC and contemplated securities law implications re ETH and altcoins.

3 killer resources to embrace failure as an opportunity:
1. Book - "Rising Strong" by Brené Brown
1. Ted Talk - How Falling Behind Can Get You Ahead by David Epstein
Are you an Ivy League-educated overachiever longing for meaning in your career?
How are you supposed to find happiness and fulfillment in your job when you are fearful, overwhelmed and dread going to work. 😱
People tend to underestimate the power of clarity as a pivot to genuine inner fulfillment.
Clarity emanates from inner discovery of the distinct abilities that makes us unique from a million others, and it is best tapped from a thorough comb of talents, potentials, and gifts..
Einstein warned us: the thinking that caused the problem won't solve it.
This calls for a shift in perspective, inviting us to explore solutions from a fresh angle.
🧠 Einstein's Insight
We're conditioned from a young age to equate problem-solving with success.
Yet, when we apply this mindset to our own struggles, especially in overwhelm, it too often backfires.
Most people believe comparison breeds discontent and frustration.
I believe healthy comparison fuels ambition and propels progress.
It’s all about comparing from a place of appreciation, not a place of lack.
🧠 Is your first instinct to quit when dissatisfied?
Ask yourself, "What needs to be true for me to stay?"
This shifts the narrative from impulsive exits to logical value-aligned decisions.
Do you like having money?
Do you feel guilty about it?
It's ok.
Your purpose doesn't have to be purely altruistic!
Take charge and find the profitability in your purpose!
#Profitablepurpose
#passion
This moment of self-compassion shifts your mindset from anxiety to calm to possibility, paving way for potential solutions to emerge.
Because things are always working out for you.

Sometimes, being successful is less about money, status, awards, or titles.
