The Goal: smarter, better, faster, stronger.
I didn’t start writing here to make money, or get famous, or to stroke my ego. I started this blog as a repository for ideas and reminders of how I’d like to live my life. It has also been a way to connect with people across the world and share ideas. To help, both myself and others.
I was fortunate enough to be born into a great family, who had the means to provide me with a fabulous education and surround me by some of the most interesting and successful people in the world. The education and the people have given me access to some world-class advice, as well as some world-class criticism. I collect all of this, search out more, and provide some of my own, with the goal of sharing it with others who can hopefully get as much out of it as I have. Some of the things I cover here include:
