All lawful battles between family and friends should preferably be handled privately. Any public square battle ends in a pyrrhic victory, at best.

Those that know better, deal with their differences privately. Such differences are easier to reconcile, because trust remains intact.

When feuds go public, people pick sides and you start actively courting supporters. Cheap popularity.

You desire more people to make sense of your stand. Vanity metric.

Now you have even more people that will feel betrayed if you ever reconcile, without their permission. Needless pressure.

All battles bring pyrrhic victories. Enter them knowing this.

Almost all high performing leaders go through a similar timeline –

1. Arrive, trusting.
2. Experience betrayal.
3. Prioritise results (Fear-based leadership).
4. Prioritise relationships (Love-based leadership).
5. Leave, trusting.

The best
The best masseurs do not get the best massages.

They are the best not for themselves, but for others.

There is a truth about greatness there.

No investment
When you invest, what’s the worst that can happen? You lose 100% of your investment, and have nothing left to invest.

When you invest, what’s the best that can happen? You gain multiples of 100% your investment, and you do not need to invest again.

The end of losing is no investment, and the end of winning is no further investment. No wonder so many just go through life without investing. Why wait till the end?

New
New creams work like magic. Everything just glows up. Then your skin gets used to it and returns to its old self.

And then you move on to yet another new product.

The skin is the largest waste removal organ. More junk in, and more waste is transported to the skin’s surface.

What you ingest will ultimately override the best cosmetic products.

No calls
Mobile voice calls are growing into irritants. Soon, there will be no voice call functionality on phones. Nothing irritates more than being connected digitally and then a call jumps in to disrupt, without permission.

Air conditioning
There is something fundamentally unhealthy about air conditioning. Science is still debating it, but my body already knows. There must be other ways to keep homes cool, through design and nature.

Appsturbating
That is what we do. Go through apps in a repititive relentless meaningless motion, even when the value generated is questionable.
