We often fear the unknown, but it’s in that uncertainty where growth and transformation occur.

The hardest part of change is beginning it.

Dreams don’t work unless you do. Effort, persistence, and passion are the key to any success.

Sometimes, the hardest lessons are the most rewarding.

Strength is not just about muscle. It’s about resilience, the quiet power to keep going through adversity.

Time is the one resource we can never get back, so make the most of each passing moment.

Every day is a new opportunity to redefine yourself. Don’t let fear keep you from becoming who you are meant to be.

AMA about the EF, I'll answer whatever I can!

Massive Overton Window shifting events create massive new surface areas for opportunity.

Will be a chaotic, weird and exhausting year.

Buckle up.

“In hindsight, it should have been obvious that when Trump launched his coin it meant X”

Solve for X

I used to complain a lot about DeFi, L2 tokens etc. and their abysmal token distributions in 2021/22, to deaf ears

That particular slippery slope has met its valley

Just straight up criminal extortion, no filter 🤣

After 15 years in tech, I finally built an app—over a weekend.

Meet Musekat: A playful way for parents and kids to explore art and museums together through fun, personalized audio tours.

Stories narrated by Miko, the most curious meerkat around. 🐾

Check it out—what should me + Miko explore next?

Hi Casters. If you read anything today, read this post by my friend Bethany on how she made an app for her kids to enjoy museums without writing a single line of code.
