The Feynman Technique—how to learn anything:
The Feynman Technique is a foundational learning method that prioritizes simplicity and depth of understanding.

It was developed by Richard Feynman—an American theoretical physicist who won the Nobel Prize in 1965 for his groundbreaking work in quantum electrodynamics. Image
So yes, you could say that Richard Feynman was intelligent...

But there are a lot of intelligent people in the world.

Feynman's true genius was found in his ability to convey extremely complex ideas in simple, elegant, digestible ways. Image

IAC is one of the most interesting companies in the world—yet very few people understand its history, structure, and playbook.

Here's a very simple breakdown on IAC:
1/ First, let's set the stage...

IAC is an American holding company. It's the brainchild of Barry Diller—its Chairman and Senior Executive.

Today, the company holds dozens of internet and media brands under its umbrella and touches millions of consumers across 100+ countries.
2/ To understand IAC's business, you have to understand its founder's history.

Barry Diller drops out of UCLA in 1961 after just a few weeks at the school.

Undeterred, he works his way up from the mailroom of William Morris to the CEO roles of Paramount and Fox.

21 lessons learned in 2021:
Engineered Serendipity

I believe that some of what we call "luck" is actually the macro result of 1,000s of micro actions.

Your daily habits can put you in a position where "luck" is more likely to strike.

Increase your serendipity surface area.

Engineer your own serendipity.
Pessimists Sound Smart, Optimists Get Rich

Pessimists look at the future and see the doors that are closed.

Optimists look at the future and see the doors that are open—and probably kick down the closed doors, too.

Surround yourself with optimists. The future is bright.
