We are fighting about creating or being part of a network. Every minute we are weaving a network. We are either lightly or tightly connected to a network. These networks are no less than oxygen. It can be your running, riding, eating club.

want
I don’t know what I want. But I know what I don’t want. This way of seeing the world has made things easier for me. Thanks to Chalie Munger’s trick of inversion. When I know what I don’t want, I will stay away from it. As a result, end up getting what I deserve. Hope …
