How to enjoy online classes a #thread of tips that have worked for me

1. Set aside time: its online, but its still school. Respect your online learning environment like you are in a classroom and set aside time that you can concentrate undistracted
2. Use the widest screen you have. Some classes I take on my laptop, but others I take in our home cinema. Widescreen changes up the learning experience 🤗
3. Use discussion boards. I use discussion boards to talk to my professors and colleagues.
Great way to get the social experience of uni without having ro travel. Some of my colleagues I chat to on whatsapp.

In 1917, Flynn received an inspirational letter from Lieutenant Clifford Peel, a Victorian medical student with an interest in aviation.
The young airman and war hero suggested the use of aviation to bring medical help to the Outback. Shot down in France, he died at just 24 years of age and never knew that his letter became a blueprint for the creation of the Flying Doctor Service.

1. The article starts by commenting on a piece of research from Princeton university which concluded something that REALLY frightened the life out of me.
2. It showed that the very notion that a person grew up poor, makes others view them as less intelligent/capable. 

REGARDLESS of how intelligent they actually are.
3. I then quoted the Economist. Another heart sink. ☹

"The easiest way to be successful and wealthy in life is to be born to the right parents".

A #tweetorial/#medthread on…

CONSULT ETIQUETTE – for the consultant!

(This is the 2nd in a series on consult etiquette. See the end of this thread for a link to my other tweetorial for primary teams calling consults).

So you just got paged for a consult…. What do you do?

2/
Of course we all think #1, yes?! Realistically though, it can be stressful to get consults. They are unpredictable, can come at any time, & the primary team may or may not listen to what you have to say. Here are some tips I’ve come up with from my time on #dermconsults.

0/ I've sat on this post idea for a long time but 4,200 words later here's "The Antidote to Getting a VC Job: 10 Prescriptions for Aspiring Investors". TLDR summary in this thread 👇🏾link.medium.com/aZcH2haURZ
Here are 10 prescriptions (I originally called them commandments but that felt too authoritative!) for people trying to get into #VC or #tech #investing

1/ Don’t ask for help. Be the helper.

I Had Always Been Mostly #Trader With Dash Of #Investing Thrown In Between When Started Out In World Of Stocks. Last 5 Years Have Been Revelation on Investing Front. I Have Formed My Own Investing Philosophy & it Has Been Hugely Rewarding In Terms Of Strategy ..(1/n)
And The Potential it Holds Out For Future! The Basic Premise For My PhiloSophy is CAGR (Compounded Annual Growth Rate). RJ is RJ Because of Phenomenal 40%+ CAGR Since 80's. So Basically, Achieving High CAGR Over Long Period Of Time is All That Is To Wealth Creation (2/n)
Now For CAGR, Name Of Stocks Don't Matter To Me, Neither What Business They Are In. Obviously, if Fundamentals of Business Are Good, More Investors & Traders Are Going To Back The Price UpTrend, So Fundamentals Are Critical, But Thats Not All There is To Investing (3/n)
