If the next phase is not about pursuing: Maximum Return, but instead: Maximum Optionality, then here's what needs to be done: 1️⃣ Lower fixed costs and maintain ample liquidity; 2️⃣ Hold a few long-term assets you truly understand; 3️⃣ Avoid leverage that could force you out of the game; 4️⃣ Make fewer decisions and let time and compounding work for you; Attention is a highly valuable asset, so consider what needs to restructure or distract my attention: 1) If this asset doesn’t significantly improve my overall wealth structure, why is it worth occupying my attention? 2) A new opportunity must be so good that it compels me to break my original long-term plan; otherwise, the default is to “do nothing.” The longer the time horizon, the lower the marginal value of money and the higher the marginal value of time. So, always ask yourself: Is the money earned from this worth the life time I’m investing?
