successful support-systems people
You can't achieve anything entirely by yourself. There's a support system that is a basic requirement of human existence. To be happy and successful on earth, you just have to have people that you rely on.
couple nuts plot
Mockumentary formats are great for a couple of things. One of them is delivering the toughest part of any sitcom episode, what writers call "pipe" - the nuts and bolts of the story where you explain what's happening, the boring plot stuff.
winning people trying
There's going to be a lot of people that don't like you, and there's nothing you can do about it. Instead of trying to win them over one by one, you need to do things that are getting huge swaths of votes [in the elections].
hate media people
It's all about media culture and people on television, and that feeling comfortable, friendly, or warm toward a candidate [in the elections] is a reason people would emotionally attach themselves to that candidate. I get the mechanics of it, I just hate that it's true.
addiction fruit process
I was happier when pursuing success than I was when savoring its fruits; the attraction, perhaps the addiction, was in the process, as much as in its end.
mistake ideas balance
Good investing is a peculiar balance between the conviction to follow your ideas and the flexibility to recognize when you have made a mistake.
mistake humility balance
The balance between confidence and humility is best learned through extensive experience and mistakes.
successful needs traders
The markets are always changing, and the successful trader needs to adapt to these changes.
honest judgment seekers
You have to be intellectually honest with yourself and others. In my judgment, all great investors are seekers of truth.
humility three-things faces
A good trader has to have three things: a chronic inability to accept things at face value, to feel continuously unsettled, and to have humility.
mutual-fund horrible firm
Brokerage firms don't sell customers stock so much as they sell those horrible mutual funds
bridges burning ends
Also, if I did join another show, I'd end up burning my bridges to the show I love most.
vitamins values
Daily vitamins are of no value.
vaccines sides side-effects
There are always potential side effects for every vaccine.
