Teach your kids how to think, not what to think.

Here’s 11 things you should teach your kids

(that most adults were never taught)… Image
1. Teach mental models

Mental models are tools for your mind:

•Inversion
•Incentives
•First Principles
•Feynman Technique

The more tools you have, the more problems you solve.

STOP doing these 15 THINGS if you want to SUCCEED:

1) Telling people your goals Image
When you tell people your goals, you get a bunch of dopamine.

Usually, your brain gives it out when you've accomplished a hard task you planned on achieving.

By telling people your goals, your brain thinks you've already accomplished them,

So no need for motivation.
2) Stop partying

Partying is the biggest waste of time & lie in 2025.

It's being advertised to young men & women all over the world as if it's the best thing to do when young.

It's not.

It's the worst.

You have to focus on building yourself, because you've got the speed.
