Motivation

I wrote down this quote from Jeff Bezos four years ago:

I projected myself into my 80s and asked what regrets I had about my life. And I realized that, at 80, I probably wouldn’t even remember all the things that seemed so important right then, like forgoing the end-of-year Wall Street bonus. But I would definitely remember that I’d ignored the emergence of the Internet just as it was happening and tell myself I’d been a fool.

This blog is part of my personal regret minimization plan.
