That's cool! Curious to listen - please share :)
Conscientiousness is one of the traits, but it is not the only trait important in the process of life planning in my view. I started to think about this topic after re-reading PG's The Anatomy of Determination essay and Sam Altman's Productivity article. http://www.paulgraham.com/determination.html?viewfullsite=1 https://blog.samaltman.com/productivity
Good points, thank you for sharing! Actually, I meet a lot of tech / VC guys who still love to plan things on paper, mostly due to a lot of distractions in their phones and computers.
How long-term your vision is? Is it 1-year or 10-year or maybe 30-year? I have met a guy who had a vision for 50 years ahead - sound crazy but works for him.
IMHO, It is like sailing on a boat - you at least need to have a rough direction, otherwise you will get nowhere
Thanks for sharing! Good point on being low- effort and friction. I cannot agree more, if I cannot imagine maintaining a habit for more than a year then there is no point in even starting.
Haha, lol, good for you!
Wow, great! Thanks for sharing!

Investing 101: Markets go up and markets go down but how investors ascribe value to businesses rarely change that much in the end:

Capital light >>> Capital heavy Product moat >>> Capital moat Network effects >>> Marketplaces >>> Everything else
