Lessons:
1. If you want to be the best, you need to pick one thing to be the best at.
2. The ones who succeed are the ones who are irrationally passionate about what they’re doing.
3. Happiness is the sense that nothing is missing in this moment.

I just subscribed why: 1:) the audio is excellent quality, 2: Its naval, he is my number one favorite tech entrepreneur. One thing that needs to be understood is naval is an engineer and a philosopher yes he has a degree in electrical engineering, he studies other people's great philosophy, he uses one of Bruce lee's most important techniques, the combination of different systems with harmony, non extremes (non mechanical man), he found the balance.

I've watched every single Naval Ravikant video I can find on YouTube and read every single Naval Ravikant tweet. I'm a much more intelligent and happy person because of this.
-
"People who succeed are irrationally passionate about something. " Love this ! Thank you Naval <3
-
The only desire I have is to be able to speak as concisly as Naval!
-
Every sentence is so profound, I want to write to write everything down!

This is the cycle where most of us are trapped...... Ego creates Desire and desires pulls you out of moment and you feel something is missing and then we chase that and then we wonder why aren't we happy and then we try to sense of loss by pleasure (drugs, alcohol, sex or anything.)
-
He is such a clear thinker, but more so the clarity in his verbal messaging of what he thinks is just insane. No ums, ohs, and gaps in his flow of thought to explanation process. Other than feeling like he's always talking 2x speed, he's the man haha
-
Anybody else get the chills listening to this guy ??
-
Naval is the best, I like the regular people talking about it afterwards too
-
This guy is amazing...incredible philosophy. He almost has a contrarian answer that makes sense for nearly every question. No doubt he's got to this understanding of life & people through his own struggles.

Whenever I pick up "The Almanack of Naval," I'm compelled to set it aside and dive into productive work. It's truly a captivating read! 📖
-
Naval, I am so grateful for the fact that we are doing business together.

You are like a wizard, that moment, you are actually surprised by the nuggets that he is dropping every moment.

1.) no one can compete with you in thing which you consider as fun, you will outwork( outfun) everyone in it 2.) you can get anything you want in life as long as its one thing( you have to do chose one thing and simultaneously chose NOT to do other things), problem happens when you have 10 diff desires and they create confusion in you and fight to assert their dominance over you. chase 1 thing and you will get it. and while fulfilling the 1 desire it should be something you love working and have fun rather than toil. 3.) most of the life is search for " who and what needs you the most " and " who and what you need the most"' 4.) you need to be patient and keep on improving, it takes min 10 years to build career in anything 5.) universe is constantly dropping opportunities you have to spot them and pick them up 6.) dont let virtual reality of mobile and social media dictate your desires and goals, do what you want to do and not what others are doing. 7.) program your mind or your mind will program you. rule your mind or your mind will rule you
