3 Golden Nuggets a day - on Breakdown of Power, Negotiation Tool and Founders

---

• Classic Read

Resource:
Political Correctness Debate ft. Stephen Fry, Jordan Peterson, Michael Dyson, Michelle Goldberg

My one golden nugget:

• There is value "in playing gracefully with ideas" (t=1h30m)
• there are still powerful people that don't realize how much power they hold

From Foucault[research] - power breaks out everywhere (every level of power)
Max Weber - Power is held in a hierarchical structure where subordination is the demand.

• How To's:

Resource:
Tai Lopez newsletter on mentors

My one golden nugget:

Joel also taught me the important skill of negotiation. Let me tell you something, when you’re negotiating anything, whether that be a house or a car, or a business deal, you need to look at multiple offers.
The less desperate you look, the better. You have to be willing to put an offer and try to negotiate a better deal. If you only look at one property, your mentality will be, "I gotta have it, I gotta have it."

• Biography:

Resource:
E749: James Altucher & Jason talk “Angel”: investor & founder guidebook to new wealth creation

My one golden nugget:

you don't have to be first to make it big!
Separate your limited capacity and read the passion of the founder in order to determine if the person is going to succeed!
Make a founder promise that you will be their first investor for their next company!

Reading Lists

---

I am building a list of books on airtable.

There are books that I reread regularly, but at the moment I read new books in trying to identify the best books to reread while trying to push my learning boundaries. So far I got to organise my future reading in 6 lists, main readings for each time of the day:

• morning: classics (my definition of classics, must say)
• lunch break: how to's (programming or managerial mostly)
• evening: biographies

and 3 lists of books that look interesting but haven't got enough information for them:

• morning: classics
• lunch break: how to's
• evening: biographies

For people who just wanted to know how to choose what to read by Tai Lopez' talked of principles.

Do you have a book or resource that would like to see what nuggets I can get out from for you ?
