Notes to My Future Self

In this post, I will gather phrases that have been important in my life, so I never forget them and can always look them up. Last update: 2025-02-11

• Listening is more important than speaking.
• People usually only show you 20% of who they really are.
• Pain is a signal you should never ignore and always act on.
• Breath consciously.
• It is more likely that you benefit from not being the first to adopt something new than that you are disadvantaged by being second.
• If you can do something in less than 3 minutes, do it right away.
• Plan at least as much time for planning as for the actual thing.
• Less is – in almost all cases – more.
