Being wrong isn't something to fear but rather something to expect. #quoteoftheday

It’s an uncomfortable truth, but most of your to-do list doesn’t need doing. I learned this last week — in the ER. I’d cut my finger. Nothing serious. But while waiting, I watched how nurses triaged patients: Some were treated immediately. Some were told to wait. Some were sent home with nothing. And it hit me: This is how we should handle our tasks. You don’t need 100 productivity hacks. You need triage. Lincoln said: "Leave nothing for tomorrow which can be done today." Napoleon? He’d ignore battlefield dispatches for 3 weeks — because most resolved themselves. Both were right. The “Now or Next Week” Rule: ✓ Takes <10 min? → Do it now. ? Unclear or not urgent? → Revisit next week. ✗ Everything else? → Let it go. Doing less, faster beats doing more, later. Clarity begins when you stop carrying everything all at once. That’s why this post was written one week after that ER visit — and not a moment sooner. Stop managing your to-do list like a grocery list. Start managing it like an ER. ♻️ Repost to help others prioritize their time and energy. ➕ Follow Andrew for more.

Today’s Farnam Street newsletter included this gem and I couldn’t help but connect it with a visual by GoLimitless. We all spend too much time rewriting the past in our heads. But the future only listens to what we do next. Here's the quote: Don't let your worst moments become your story. You blow the presentation and spend the drive home scripting perfect comebacks to an audience that's already gone. Your relationship ends and you spend months replaying conversations that can't be changed. All the time spent perfecting the past is stolen from the future that's still waiting. The past is a teacher, not a judge. Your next move matters more than your last mistake.

Eid Mubarak.

Super proud to see my home city, Hong Kong, welcoming these bright young talents from Tabuk! Wishing the students from the College of Tourism and Hospitality at UT a truly enriching and inspiring learning journey. This initiative is a fantastic example of global academic collaboration and hands-on career development in the hospitality industry. Make the most of your time here, and don’t forget to explore the vibrant city, especially the iconic Tsim Sha Tsui district near PolyU. The Star Ferry and Avenue of Stars are a must, along with the many museums and artsy malls dotting the harborfront. Welcome to Hong Kong!

Real talent doesn’t need to be imported. It needs to be invested in. Today, we welcomed key collaborators and partners to our high-tech Greenhouse at the University of Tabuk — a hub built to grow world-class produce and harvest the data we need to farm smarter in the desert.

Ready to get to work in our brand-new production house at Topian. Huge thanks to our ecosystem partners and the University of Tabuk for backing this vision. This is just the start.
