Life is easy

I believe you can get ahead by going the extra mile. Most people do the bare minimum, if that. If you exceed expectations, even just a little, it can be a pleasant surprise

“We need to make sure that you get ahead purely as a function of your talent and hard work. Nothing else.”

— Elon Musk

Do more than is required. What is the distance between someone who achieves their goals consistently and those who spend their lives and careers merely following? The extra mile.

Gary Ryan Blair

How can you be wealthier than the person who has enough?

 As Morgan Housel says, enough should not be a moving goal post.

At some point, enough should be enough.

Energy Transition

No one hears the phrase "energy transition" anymore; it's practically dead. It's now clear that we are not transitioning to anything. The world needs all the energy it can get and more. Perhaps when oil and gas run out, we will have to transition to poverty and back into the dark ages.

Just do one thing , and enforce it

If you make 10,000 regulations you destroy all respect for the law

— Winston Churchill

The more corrupt the state, the more numerous the laws.

Tacitus

Helpers and Takers

 Helpful people don’t ask “how can I help?” They just help.

@naval
The people that help , help and help , they are like that and are happy. The people that take they take all their life. It's their thing they want to win in everything.
Of course the helpers win on their own way.
a friend of mine told me about their parents , the mother takes care about the father and a sister that still lives with the parents because of some handicap. Of course the mother is in great shape and happy.
