The BEST finance book for entrepreneurs!

The BEST finance book for entrepreneurs!

Hey friends! This book really isn't what it seems on first sight! Yep, I also sigh heavily when I normally read those book titles. “How to get rich fast”, “follow this easy strategy to become wealthy easily!”, “follow these steps to make a successful business!” All those titles logically sound

My first Job!

Hey people, this will be a shortie because I'm enjoying my vacation. (Edit 7 days later: turns out whilst writing this blog, I started feeling symptoms which later turn out to be Covid-19) Even if it's not cold yet, I will ski a bit and hopefully break no bones. Still,

High-Income Skills: the biggest advantage in adulthood?

Hey friends, I really struggled to find some ideas for the next blog post, but then I remembered the thing I decided to spend some time on this week. It's an edit of the clips my friend sent me, who's excellent at the game called Valorant. 0:00/1× I

The myth of motivation

The myth of motivation

Hello everyone, This past week was challenging for me, honestly. I play the guitar for 8 years now and when you are this far down the trip, then you have to practice at least 20 Minutes a day. But, even today, I struggle with motivation. I find that I often

Reasons you shouldn't underestimate sleep quality

Reasons you shouldn't underestimate sleep quality

Hey guys! Three days ago, my parents purchased me a new blanket. When I googled the price, I was slightly shocked. $170 just for a blanket? Why is it such a game changer? Normally, I sleep 7 to 8 hours and feel pretty tired in the morning. A cold shower

Ego is the Enemy

Hello everybody, Before doing anything else, I have to give massive credit to Ryan Holiday for writing this outstanding book. Is it worth to buy and read? Absolutely!

Hello nobody! :D

It's me and my first blog. I haven't actually planned to make a first blog that goes “hello everyone, my first blog blah blah” but now I'm doing it anyway. I'm very hyped to start improving this website and posting weekly. Not only that, but I haven't really decided if
