IDEAS THAT MAKE SENSE:
Fun is the key to building a long term habit: Optimising for fun will lead to a more sustainable habit.
To-do lists are a productivity hack: The key is to not overwhelm yourself.
Most successful people are remarkably unremarkable: They just do the boring stuff really well.
Storytelling is a superpower: Brands, movies, everything is a story.
