Be truthful to yourself and understand your strengths; leverage them in your endeavors, just like I did in my investment career.

It's crucial to check in with yourself and understand what truly matters to you, rather than pursuing what you think others expect of you.

The key is to discover what's true for you and how you genuinely feel about things.

It's important to balance exploring various interests with the commitment to mastering a single skill, especially when starting out.

When deciding whether to start a startup, I ask myself where I perform best and where I feel organically motivated, reflecting on my life experiences to identify those situations. You need to be honest with yourself about when you truly kick into high gear, as this can help you determine your career path.

It's essential to be brutally honest with yourself about which projects are actually working and which ones you're just convincing yourself are successful.

It's crucial to assess your strengths and weaknesses honestly when searching for a new idea to pivot to, ensuring you play to your strengths.

Finding work that aligns with your introverted nature is crucial for long-term happiness and success in your career.

Ultimately, you need to know yourself and what brings you joy in your learning process, even as you follow a structured curriculum.
