Early career years are painful.
You feel like an idiot 98% of the time - lost, confused and insecure.
I wish I had a playbook on principles for my first job.
So I put one together.
Here are 9 threads packed with lessons about building a career I wish I knew sooner:
1. First and most important - have a clear mind.
Without clarity of thought, nothing else matters.
Here are the most common types of distortions I’ve observed over the years.
Self awareness has helped me catch myself before falling into a trap.
2. Enter the side door
Most people enter the “front door” in their careers.
The problem is - when you do what most people do, you get the results most people get.
If you want a n-of-1 career, don’t take the 1-of-n path.
3. Adversity is inevitable
Any journey that’s worthwhile is filled with adversity.
If it was so easy...everybody would do it.
Here’s the way I’ve worked through dealing with the road blocks that are part of every entrepreneur’s journey.
4. Learn from the world's best
I love talking to world class people - CEOs, Founders, Execs, Athletes.
There's a lot of commonality in world class success.
Unpacking how these people got to where they are is always inspiring.

See how Swami Satha Sivom (head priest of historic Kalikambal temple in Chennai where Shivaji was sent by Samarth Ramadas) did homa in a really small silver vessel when visiting a greater Boston apartment. One can scale up or down based on circumstances and constraints. 1/2

I've taken $500→ $1,415 in 7 days for my small account challenge🚀
Here’s how I found the stocks to trade✅
(a mini-thread)🧵
👇👇👇
For the small account challenge, I focus on scalping options for a quick 10-30% gain. I always have $SPX on my watchlist, as it is my focus for this challenge. Then every morning I go through a list of specific stocks to see if any of them are moving/gapping.
I'll take a look at… $AAPL, $AMZN, $BA, $FB, $ROKU, $SHOP, $NFLX, $MSFT, $TSLA, $NVDA, and $AMD. These are all just stocks that have solid options volume and I have played them a lot in the past.
I am always looking for where the momentum is. If none of those stocks are gapping up/down strongly then I don’t look at them. I want to see which stocks are moving fast and have good options volume. Here’s what I’ll do next👇
I will go to https://t.co/C2Ol1qiopJ and look for the gap ups and gap downs list. Then, I will look for stocks that are higher priced (above $100 is best but not too important) and gapping in a certain direction.
