ButcherBox is a new sponsor of Where It Happens, which means I’m officially a Meat Influencer. It’s probably nothing…

They’re giving away 7+ lbs of free meat to new subscribers who use the link below. Enjoy!

And yes, I ate both of those steaks.

Please don’t @ me.
The ribeye pairs beautifully with this Kaiyo Whiskey on a cold evening.

Thanks @fintechjunkie for the bottle!
Yes, the sweet potato is cooked. Do I cook my sweet potatoes wrong or something?!
For anyone questioning my grilling skills: Pittsburgh-style steaks are where it’s at.

Again, please don’t @ me.
Getting absolutely destroyed for my sweet potato preparation and presentation.

I microwaved it lmao.

Cut it open, throw on some Kerrygold Irish Butter, and you’re all good!
Ok seriously, SweetPotatoGate is becoming a thing…

If I were starting my career again and I wanted to optimize for:

(1) Foundation-building experience
(2) High probability of $10m by age 30

Here’s how I’d do it:
Run a simple Google search for the top 10 venture funds investing in your given country or market.

Go to their websites and scan their team pages.

Write down the names of 2-3 junior or mid-ranking investment team members at each fund.

Compile a list of ~20-30 names.
Use Twitter (or LinkedIn if you’re brave) to search for each individual.

Send a thoughtful, concise cold DM or email to each person you are able to find. The guide below might help.

Have a clear CTA: request a 30-minute call to ask them a few questions about their portfolio.

The most powerful ideas in life:
Time Billionaire

Time is our most precious asset.

When you're young, you are a "time billionaire”—rich with time.

Too many people fail to realize the value of this asset until it is gone.

Treat time as your ultimate currency—it’s all you have and you can never get it back.
Darkest Hour Friends

It's easy to be there for people to celebrate their wins. It takes character to show up for them in their darkest hour.

People never forget those who supported them when the chips were down.

Find your "darkest hour friends”—treasure them.

The Icarus Paradox offers a critical lesson on business, investing, and life.

Here’s a simple breakdown:
The story of Icarus is a famous tale from Greek mythology.

Icarus is the son of a craftsman—Daedalus.

To help the pair escape from Crete, Daedalus uses feathers and wax to create two sets of wings.

Prior to the attempt, Daedalus warns his son to avoid complacency and hubris.
Daedalus instructs Icarus to avoid flying too low or too high—cautioning that the sea's moisture or the sun's heat could cause the wings to malfunction.

But Icarus becomes amazed by his flight and soars away.

The sun melts the wax on his wings and Icarus falls to his death.

First principles thinking is a powerful framework for deconstructing complex problems and driving non-linear outcomes.

Here's a breakdown of what it is and how it works:
Aristotle defined a first principle as "the first basis from which a thing is known."

A first principle is a basic, foundational assumption—one that cannot be deduced or broken down any further.

First principles are foundational truths.
"First principles thinking”—or "reasoning from first principles”—is a problem-solving and innovation framework that requires you to break down a complex problem into its most foundational elements.

The aim: to ground yourself in the foundational truths and build up from there.
