Here are 4 behaviors I& #39;ve observed:
Effective people optimize for what compoundsânot just quick wins.
They train themselves to get a dopamine hit when they help their future selvesâeven if they receive no immediate benefit from the action.
What compounds:
⢠Building audiences
⢠Relationships
⢠Investing $

In school, we learn by being curious and by accepting when we& #39;re wrong.
As adults, we forget we& #39;re still studentsâof life.
Effective people recreate environments where they& #39;re still told they& #39;re wrong:
They befriend blunt, independent-minded thinkers who& #39;ll call them out.

Effective people defer stuff that doesnât matter, and always get started on what does.
Momentum is about rate of iteration and persistence, not brilliance.
I donât know one effective friend who isnât strongly biased toward taking action.

Success therefore appears to be two things:
1. Point yourself in the right direction.
2. Do the work even when you& #39;re not in the mood to.
Both are necessary.
(Plus luck and privilege, of course.)

Luck is a function of surface area.
In the early days, effective people increase their luck by exposing themselves to more opportunities and more people.
Thereâs a reason why successful people tend to be proactive: theyâre expanding their reach.
Reach is a serendipity engine.

There are three ways to consume information:
Most people: Consume info for a dopamine hit.
Thoughtful people: Consume to refine their understanding.
Effective people: Find info that challenges their views and change them when they& #39;re wrong. â Get your advice from these people

Recap:
The best founders I know share some traits:
1. Bias toward taking actionâno lazy deferring.
2. Always looking to prove themselves wrong.
3. Regularly reassess their priorities without fear of changing them.
Key: They balance momentum with indulging their curiosity.
