Banker and archaeologist John Lubbock on the value of downtime:
"Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under trees on a summer's day, listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time."

On balance: Spend a handful of hours a day going fast. Crush a gym session. Do deep work on a project you care about. Spend the rest of the day going slow. Take walks. Read books. Get a long dinner with friends. Either way, avoid the anxious middle where you never truly relax or truly move forward.

The simple framework Jeff Bezos used to make faster decisions at Amazon: 🔀🎯
“Some decisions are consequential and irreversible or nearly irreversible – one-way doors – and these decisions must be made methodically, carefully, slowly, with great deliberation and consultation.

Vincent Van Gogh on the accumulation of small things:
“Great things are not done by impulse, but by a series of small things brought together. The trick is to focus on the first small thing. Starting small is still starting, and small beginnings often lead to extraordinary endings.”

Weekend thoughts💭
Your mistakes aren’t the best teacher—just the most expensive.
You can start at the mountain’s base and make every mistake on the way up, or take a sherpa and master the best of what others have figured out.
The successful learn vicariously; the foolish insist on firsthand pain.

1. Is 100% accuracy vital for this task?
2. How predictable are human errors compared to Al's unpredictable hallucinations?
3. Can your Al's decisions be explained and trusted?

Integrate AI into Your Team’s Workflow
AI is here, transforming industries. As leaders, empower your people to thrive:
1️⃣ Let AI handle repetitive tasks so your team can focus on creativity, empathy, and strategy. Reskill them to unlock human potential AI can’t replicate.
