It took me 7000 hours, 5 years, and 300 books to learn these 7 brutal truths:
1) The 2 Types of Truth
Tribal truth
When enough people believe an idea it becomes true.
↳ Money having value
Absolute truth
Truth proven through consistent replication.
↳ Fire burns (ouch)
Be logical enough to align with truth.
Be social enough to market it.

2) Compound Wins; Learn from Failures
To win at life, play games where:
⇢ Wins lead to wins
⇢ Failures lead to data
Ex) Post content 7x a week.
If 3 go viral, you have compound growth.
If 4 flop, you have new data to learn from.
Maximize upside. Cap downside.
