The challenge in economics is to recognize that not everything can be measured in monetary terms, and we must consider qualitative aspects of well-being.

We're measuring outcomes with metrics that show whether we're moving the needle, rather than just assessing the technology itself.

Some people reach for global problems they don't encounter in their daily lives, making it hard to measure their impact or improvement.

The obsession with output and performance in society may overshadow the importance of the human experience and the journey of personal growth.

Quality in product development often suffers because companies prioritize task completion over quality; we need to incentivize quality work.

When product teams focus solely on metrics like engagement or dwell time, they risk neglecting qualitative aspects such as content quality and user satisfaction, which can lead to long-term retention issues.

Focusing solely on a single metric for product success can lead to poor decision-making and a lack of overall product quality.

I think there's a systematic undervaluing of tools and their impact, as it's harder to perceive their benefits compared to direct actions.

While material progress is important, it alone does not address the totality of the human experience, which includes mental health and fulfillment.
