There will be people who will believe in you when no one else does, who will give you opportunities that you didn’t think you were capable of. These people are very rare to come by. When you find such people, stick to them, it will be the biggest unlock in your career.

Remember to take regular breaks. Don’t work for more than 90 consecutive minutes. Don’t work on every workday for more than 3 months. Taking breaks is important for productivity and mental health.

YouTube shouldn’t have removed the dislike count. This was such a valuable piece of information helping to choose between videos on a specific topic.

Among many things, one thing that I really love about Amazon is how expectations are beautifully encoded in the 14 leadership principles.And these leadership principles apply everywhere - hiring, day to day operations, long term roadmap.
