“By and large, life will give you what you deserve and it doesn’t give a damn what you like. So it is up to you to take full responsibility to connect what you want with what you need to do to get it, and then to do those things.”

Meditation, more than any other factor, has been the reason for what success I’ve had.

When you think that it’s too hard, remember that in the long run, doing the things that will make you successful is a lot easier than being unsuccessful.

If you don’t own Gold, you know neither history nor economics.

When growth is slower than expected, stocks go down. When inflation is higher than expected, bonds go down. When inflation’s lower than expected, bonds go up.

You should have a strategic asset allocation mix that assumes that you don’t know what the future is going to hold.

Like the saying goes, don’t believe everything you read.

To test if you are worrying too much about looking good, observe how you feel when you find out you’ve made a mistake or don’t know something.

I believe that one of the best ways of getting at truth is reflecting with others who have opposing views and who share your interest in finding the truth rather than being proven right

The best advice I can give you is to ask yourself what do you want, then ask ‘what is true’ – and then ask yourself ‘what should be done about it.’ I believe that if you do this you will move much faster towards what you want to get out of life than if you don’t!

To be successful, we need everyone to think independently and work through disagreement to decide what’s best.

When you’re faced with a choice, you have one of three choices that you can have. You can have those with power decide. You can have one man, one vote. Or you can have believability-weighted decision-making.

I think meditation has been the single biggest reason for whatever success Ive had.

The main reason I write the daily observations is because I want to know where I’m wrong. So lots of times if somebody points something out it helps me, and I want to have a diversified bet of uncorrelated bets.

Do not feel bad about your mistakes or those of others. Love them! Remember that one: they are to be expected; two: they’re the first and most essential part of the learning process; and three: feeling bad about them will prevent you from getting better.

I think the greatest tragedy of mankind is that people have ideas and opinions in their heads but don’t have a process for properly examining these ideas to find out what’s true. That creates a world of distortions.

Be wary of the arrogant intellectual who comments from the stands without having played on the field.

Connecting with nature to find peace in a chaotic time.

Invisible threads are the strongest ties.

Connected is helping people stay in touch and maintain empathy for each other, and bandwidth.

Leadership is about empathy. It is about having the ability to relate to and connect with people for the purpose of inspiring and empowering their lives.

Social distancing doesn’t have to mean social disconnection.

Read. Travel. Read. Ask. Read. Learn. Read. Connect. Read.

Live life like its the last breath you take for that breath is the whole essence of living, the little things in life are what connects us to all the big things we live for.

There is a huge need and a huge opportunity to get everyone in the world connected, to give everyone a voice and to help transform society for the future.
