💎 5 Tweet Tuesday 💎
Out of 500M daily tweets, only 5 deserve your attention.
This week, I hunted them down the same way I hunt for the right avocado at the grocery store.
Let’s get to it:

Inspiration comes on the twenty-fifth attempt, not the first. If you want to make something excellent, don't wait for a brilliant idea to strike. Create twenty-five of what you need and one will be great. Inspiration reveals itself after you get the average ideas out of the way,… x.com/i/web/status/1…

At this rate it will become the #1 ISP in the US by 2028

What a juggernaut. And Starlink is the “side hustle” of SpaceX.
Quick maths - Starlink is $120/month * 4M current subscribers = $480M a year!?
If Pieter is correct, and it hits 32M subscribers == ~$3.5 - 4B in revenue.

You know what’s strange? When people read these quotes, they never actually pause to answer.
What’s the point?
I have a lot of bad habits, but one good one is that I actually take a stab at answering all these philosophical questions. Even though I suck at answering them, I still try.
So I’ll take a stab: “if you’re so smart, why aren’t you happy?” – first answer that comes to mind…
“because the habits that made me successful (finding problems and solving them, always trying to improve) aren’t the habits that make me feel happy (being grateful, being at peace with situations.)”
