The man who healed what doctors can't:

Carl Jung.

Studying his ideas will make you immune to depression.

These are his 6 Laws for Finding your Life's Purpose: Image
Born in 1875 in Kesswil, Switzerland:

Jung experienced a complex childhood filled with vivid dreams and intense inner experiences that would shape his entire worldview.

And his family?
His father was a Swiss Reformed Church minister, deeply influencing his early understanding of the human spirit and psyche.

Later, as chief psychiatrist at Burghölzli Hospital, Jung noticed something others missed:
Mental illness wasn't just random dysfunction.

It was the psyche desperately trying to communicate.

And this revelation would change everything we knew about the human mind: Image
1. Embrace Your Entire Psyche

The unconscious contains valuable information about who you really are.

Jung found that symptoms emerge when we reject parts of ourselves.

But here's where it gets interesting...
When we resist these darker aspects, they don't disappear.

They grow stronger, manifesting as anxiety, depression, or unexplained fears.

The solution isn't fighting these parts - it's understanding their message.

And this leads to Jung's most profound discovery: Image
2. Listen to Your Unconscious

Dreams aren't random noise in your mind.

They're precise messages from your unconscious, showing you what you need for wholeness.

But most people miss the hidden pattern behind these messages:
That recurring nightmare? It's pointing to unresolved trauma.

Those persistent fantasies? They're revealing your unlived potential.

Your unconscious speaks in symbols and metaphors.

And once you understand this language, something remarkable happens:
3. Follow Your Symbols

Jung discovered certain symbols appear universally across all cultures.

The Hero. The Mother. The Wise Elder.

These aren't just stories - they're maps to psychological wholeness.

But here's what makes this truly fascinating:
When you're drawn to certain stories, symbols, or myths?

That's not coincidence.

It's your psyche showing you which archetypal energies you need to develop.

And this reveals something crucial about finding your purpose:
4. Trust Your Symptoms

Jung made a revolutionary discovery about psychological symptoms:

• Depression isn't just chemical imbalance
• Anxiety isn't just nervous energy
• Burnout isn't just tiredness

They're not just problems to fix. They're messages trying to guide you...
Your symptoms reveal:

• Where you've betrayed your true nature
• Which parts of yourself need attention
• What direction leads to wholeness

But the most fascinating part was yet to come:
5. Live Your Individual Myth

Jung believed each person's life is a unique story trying to unfold.

Not the story society wrote for you, and not the path your parents planned.

But here's where most people get stuck:
They try to follow someone else's path.

They ignore their inner wisdom.

They resist their true calling.

And this is what leads to suffering.

There's something here that's more important than ever:
In today's noisy world, authenticity is your greatest asset.

Just like Jung showed us - the path to growth isn't about hiding who you are.

It's about integrating ALL parts of yourself.

This is especially crucial for founders and leaders:
Your authentic voice has become your competitive advantage.

Robert Greene's ideas will make you immune to depression.

But his books average 500+ pages and take 100s of hours to read.

I curated his best ideas, so you don’t have to.

Here's his 5-step protocol for a lifetime of happiness: Image
1. Find Your Life's Task

You were born completely unique.

Your DNA has never existed before, nor will it ever exist again.

You are one of one - as is your life's purpose.

So why do we devote our lives to what society, our friends or our parents want from us?
Greene offers a reason: Conformism.

"We're such conformists that we have no idea who we are, what makes us happy or what gives us a sense of fulfillment".

Fear of social rejection means we lack courage to find our path.

Greene offers some practical steps:

When he fled Communist Vietnam in 1979, death was certain if caught.

Today, his hot sauce is in 1 out of 10 American homes:

$150M revenue, no sales team & $0 in ad spend.

The incredible story of David Tran and Sriracha 🧵 Image
1979: David Tran fled Vietnam with his family.
`
His only possession? 100 ounces of gold hidden in cans of condensed milk to evade Communist authorities.

As a former Major in the South Vietnamese army, he knew discovery meant certain death.

That gold would change everything...
After a harrowing escape, Tran and his family spent 30 days on the Taiwanese freighter "Huey Fong."

British authorities in Hong Kong wouldn't let them dock. No country would take them. Food and water running low.

Until, finally...

In 2012, Apple and Google went to war over maps.

Apple removed Google Maps from the iPhone & launched their own 'Maps' app.

But Apple Maps flopped so badly, Tim Cook had to publicly apologize.

Here's the full story 🧵 Image
First, some context:

Since the iPhone's launch in 2007, Google Maps had been the default navigation app.

But by 2012, competition between iOS and Android was intensifying.

And maps weren't just a feature - they were the gateway to mobile users' data.

The breaking point?
Google refused to give Apple turn-by-turn navigation - a feature already on Android.

Apple saw this as Google deliberately crippling the iPhone experience.

So Tim Cook made a bold decision... Image

In 2020, Apple and Fortnite went to war.

Epic Games (the creators of Fortnite) attempted to break the App Store's monopoly on 1 billion phones.

The result? A $70 billion lawsuit that transformed tech forever.

The shocking story of Epic Games vs Apple: 🧵 Image
For years, Apple had a firm grip on the App Store. Any app wanting to reach iPhone users had to:

• Pay Apple 30% of all revenue
• Use Apple's payment system
• Follow Apple's strict rules

Until... Image
One day, Epic Games decided to fight back. But Epic Games wasn't just any developer.

They were the creators of Fortnite, one of the world's most popular games.

They had a secret plan, codenamed "Project Liberty," to challenge Apple's dominance.

Here's what they did:
