The Daily Loop #11
Eleventh edition of The Daily Loop. 3 long-form reads, 3 short-term tweets, 1 quote and some daily advice! Have a read.
The Daily Loop newsletter focuses on information that can be consumed in 2 minutes every day by linking to posts across the internet, formatted in a way that is easy for anyone to navigate. In a 3-3-1-1 design.
The goal is for as many people to read this daily and inspire them to think differently about certain things. It will primarily be around topics and industries I am interested in such as: startups, ai, success, innovation, change, crypto, nfts, etc.

TL;DR—Create an identity for your company, everything boils down to AMA (ability, motivation, attitude), when in doubt ask why, let things sort themselves out, get comfortable with being uncomfortable, you don’t have to rely on yourself to develop instincts, aggressively seek out knowledge but don’t overstudy others, always have a perspective, it’s okay not to know the answer, building is 99% execution + 1% vision, sweat the details, letting go is important for everyones’ sanity, be ruthless about what you say “yes” to, encourage anti-perfection (only after defining standards, work ethic can’t be taught, spend time with people that are better than you, time + energy + resources (pick 2), celebrate the small wins (and keep them in perspective)… etc!

Content creation and making yourself look better on camera: rule of sixths, contrast, fill the white background, glare, clothing choice, build for your workflow, texture, bookshelves, ditch the filter and consider your mic arm!

For Crypto, but the general advice applies to all industries in the world of social media: interact with others, have a personality, create content a lot, find your people, don’t be tied down to an idea, be helpful, stand out and focus on the right things.

I have played with Midjourney for a while, found this recently! You can combine just two image with no text prompts to get a combination of them. Really cool.
