Key Takeaways
Maintain a 'Decision Register' to document major choices, noting your emotional state, the decisive reason for the choice, and predicted outcomes to objectively improve your long-term judgment.
Follow the 'Second Derivative' rule for financial freedom: invest your primary business profits into assets, and only spend the income generated by those assets rather than the principal.
When building media companies, focus on high-value audience segments with intent (like investors) rather than broad curiosity trends (like AI demos) to ensure long-term advertiser interest and business durability.
