2025 wasn't a very good year for me.

What do you do when you "failed" at something. Do you blame yourself?

The worst possible growing up environment that you can put your kids in is two white collar salaried household.

1. your life is comfortable. So your kids don't get to experience any hardship.
2. but you don't get to show your kids how to become a leader (business owner) or entrepreneurship

Don't delegate your thinking. I don't care the book you are reading is written by a dude with Harvard degree. Your approach should be you are as smart as he is. Make him earn your trust.

Never ever trust anything on its face value on the internet or anywhere. Take everything with grain of salt. You never buy into anything that others claim. You just put that in a bucket inside the big brain of yours. Let that be there. Don't get emotional with it. Wait for other pieces of the puzzle to arrive.

This requires you to spend your time to educate yourself. You need to read a lot. You need to study a lot. You need to experiment a lot on your own.

And with AI, the ratio between the signal and the noise will be insane. You need to train your brain to pick up the signal more often than not. Of course it's hard to do this alone. So you will have to find honest brokers of yours. People who tell you "your truth"
