WHAT I’M READING

I don’t read the news to find the truth, as that would be a foolish waste of time. I read the news to broaden my exposure to new topics and patterns that make my brain more efficient in general and to enjoy myself, because learning interesting things increases my energy and makes me feel optimistic.

Say yes to every opportunity that promises to get you even half an inch closer to your goals. In the early days of building your dream, progress will feel painfully slow. But don’t mistake slow progress for none at all. Because it is there. You are getting closer. Just keep climbing. (Credit: Ghost Newsletter)

“Failure is interesting — it’s part of making progress. You never learn from success, but you do learn from failure.” — James Dyson, British inventor

Imagine spending five years of your life creating 5,127 versions of a product that failed. That’s exactly what the inventor of cyclonic vacuum technology, James Dyson did. Until finally, one magical day, he hit gold — finally succeeding in creating the world’s first bagless vacuum cleaner.

In some ways, entrepreneurship can seem like a type of madness — not unlike the obsessiveness that overtakes artists. But in Dyson’s case, his patience and persistence eventually led to payoff: a multi-billion dollar company known for its creativity and forward-thinking designs. Today, the Dyson vacuum cleaner is sold in more than 65 countries worldwide. (Credit: https://www.entrepreneur.com/author/aytekin-tank)
