I’m really excited about what’s going on with Digital Ray, which is my digital twin. I'm creating this so that everyone can have as much contact and as many conversations with me as they want—unlimited amounts, in the same sort of way that I do it. Eventually, it’s going...

Knowing your nature is critically important to understanding what success is for you. I can't tell you literally what is best for you, but I can tell you that success is not having a lot more money or status than you need. Having the time and freedom to do what you most want to do is far more important. What is success for most people? It is a matter of having meaningful work and meaningful relationships. If you can make your work and your passion one and the same, and do it with people who you care about and care about you, you will have a happy, successful life. Explore Principles for the Graduating Class of 2026 with my AI Twin, Digital Ray in Beta, here:

A lot of you have asked, how am I training my digital twin? The AI version of me is being fed a lot of data — my principles, books, interviews, and more. That way, it can think through things on its own, and respond the way I would likely respond. I’m also going through a manual process of checking the answers it’s giving to see if it’s what I would actually say. I’m thankful to have great people helping me in that process, as it requires a lot of effort. I hope you’ll try it out at the link below and let me know what you think.

“Everything is difficult. If you’re going to do something important it’s going to take you a decade or more to have an impact. You might as well pick something you care about. Pick the really big thing. It’s always bothered me when I talked to entrepreneurs and they tell me about the thing they're working on and I ask: What do you *really* want to do? And they say well the big thing I want to do is actually this [other idea] But in their mind it’s a little too ambitious, it’s a little too difficult, they need more capital…. You should just go for that now. You might as well work on the thing that will have a major impact if it works.”

lando: “dementia is not something that just people have as they get older. you can be born with it, young people can have it. and it affects over 50 million people around the world. so it's something that none of us want to have. and i'm a guy that my whole life is about memories. it's about creating those pictures in your mind. and the last thing i ever want to do is lose that as i get older. that's what everything in my life is about. so it's cool that i can go out and track. i can have my fun. i can go and race. but there's a kind of second meaning behind it all. and at the same time, i get to do something good for the world. and that's something that i love” ❤️❤️

One of the ways I use social media is to put out a “principle of the day” so that we can have a conversation about it. It’s usually about life, or work, or current events. Lots of people send in questions about it each day, and I wish I could answer all of them. But now, with my AI Twin “Digital Ray,” I have my own version of that. Let me give you an example of what I mean. Today’s Principle of the Day is: Pain + Reflection = Progress There is no avoiding pain, especially if you're going after ambitious goals. Believe it or not, you are lucky to feel that kind of pain if you approach it correctly, because it is a signal that you need to find solutions so you can progress. If you can develop a reflexive reaction to psychic pain that causes you to reflect on it rather than avoid it, it will lead to your rapid learning/evolving. After seeing how much more effective it is to face the painful realities that are caused by your problems, mistakes, and weaknesses, I believe you won't want to operate any other way. It's just a matter of getting in the habit of doing it. Now, you can use my Digital Ray Beta to ask more in-depth questions. Like “How do I properly reflect on my mistakes to learn?” If you’re interested, you can now access it immediately via this link below in the comments, and if you find the interaction meaningful, I hope you’ll choose to ask it more questions and let me know how it goes.

my new song “BREAKDOWN.” is out on the 21st of June!!! 🖤🖤🖤 I wrote this poem because it’s been the hardest year for my mental health. In my life I’ve always never felt good enough, it’s just the thing that’s eaten me up. For as long as I can remember i have felt constantly afraid of how quickly my head can turn dark. It’s always been so hard to fight the darkness that i inevitably have. A lot of people will say it’s a phase and it will go away. But it doesn’t and the reality of the situation is I have to find strategies to deal with it. To put it plainly the things I don’t like about myself will probably never change, people tell me one day I’ll come-to terms with them one day but I want that day to be FUCKING NOW. This song is a message to myself to try and exist alongside my insecurities and my darkness by grounding myself and remembering what is real in life and the world is so much bigger than me. Try and get out of your head and notice the world around you, notice the things and people around you. Connect with them, the chances are they probably feel the same. Don’t let the bullshit inside your head consume you. It just wastes precious time. Remember what is real. Help people, be kind, help the world, help yourself. If you think you can’t do it, you can. You can get through this, trust me. Use this poem in a mornin to get u out of bed, use it when youre about to back out of something last minute, use it when you’re at your darkest. It’s got a little bit of light in it. Don’t forget to put your feet in the grass … Mind

AI isn’t about replacing humans. It’s about compounding what we know and making it accessible at scale. Over time, I’ve learned that the most valuable thing I can do is capture and refine my principles on life, work, geopolitics, and investing. Now, with my AI Twin, I’m able to extend that thinking into a public resource, available beyond my own time limitations. Digital Ray is in beta — if you’re interested, I invite you to engage with it and help me make it better.

Steve Jobs on what separates the successful founders from unsuccessful ones Steve is asked what the factors of success and common pitfalls are for young entrepreneurs. He responds: “I get asked this a lot, and I have a pretty standard answer. A lot of people come to me and say, ‘I want to be an entrepreneur.’ And I go, ‘Oh, that’s great, what’s your idea?’ And they say they don’t have one yet. And I say I think you should go get a job as a busboy or something until you find something you’re really passionate about, because it’s a lot of work.” Steve continues: “I’m convinced that about half of what separates the successful entrepreneurs from the non-successful ones is pure perseverance. It is so hard. You pour so much of your life into this thing, and there are such rough moments in time that most people give up. I don’t blame them. It’s really tough, and it consumes your life. I mean, if you’ve got a family and you’re in the early days of a company, I can’t imagine how one could do it. I’m sure it’s been done, but it’s rough because it’s pretty much an 18-hour-a-day job, 7 days a week for a while. So unless you have a lot of passion about this, you’re not going to survive. You’re going to give it up.” He concludes: “You’ve got to have an idea or a problem or a wrong that you want to right that you’re passionate about. Otherwise, you’re not going to have the perseverance to stick it through. And I think that’s half the battle right there.”

"did your family opposed you playing BL?" No, because this is the work that i really want to do it. And my parents were open to it so they didn't care about that and really took good care of me. I really really want to do this so i talked about it a lot.

Own your life and take responsibility to make it great. When life doesn't give you what you want, don't be angry—learn how reality works and develop principles to get you where you want to be. Be radically open-minded, and recognize that if you want to be really successful, you have to work really hard. Continue the graduation conversation with my AI Twin, Digital Ray in Beta:

ROSALÍA speaks for the first time about what happened that forced her to postpone three LUX TOUR shows: “It’s such a long, long journey to see you all here. It’s such a lovely feeling to be able to perform for you. Thank you for being so… Thank you. It’s a very… it’s a very, very… let me speak. Thank you for understanding. And that the loved ones need to come first. And I think that… yeah… we live… But when something unexpected and painful happens to you, it can be hard to keep going. But I truly believe that doing this is worth it. And I truly believe that me coming and sharing this with you, and you sharing it with me… I will do it with all the love that I have. And maybe it will be a little short, but you can take this with you. And hopefully, you will be able to take it with you again. To be honest, I don’t know what would make me happier. And I love you so much.”

Michael B. Jordan shares one of the biggest lessons he’s learned in life “I think being unapologetically honest with what you want and that goes across the board because a lot of times the fear of how somebody’s going to react to what you really want to say is what stops you from saying it” “So you find another way or you put it off or you don’t say it and maybe the situation doesn’t change and you get frustrated and upset why this thing doesn’t change because you might not have said it the way you wanted to say it” “I think there’s a way to be unapologetically honest and still be respectful and speak your truth” “If I would have done that earlier, I would have been further along in relationships that I have with people I care about. Work relationships, business, family, friends, whatever it may have been” “I think being honest with where you stand and how you feel is really giving another person an opportunity to be as honest with you and whatever your fear of that outcome is, it’s never really as big as what you make it up to be” “Tomorrow is not promised to anyone but time will move on, you will move past it and if tomorrow never comes, at least you can know that you said what you needed to say”

Chris Williamson shared a difficult truth about changing your life that most people never talk about. “If you do it well, you might have to go through a period where you let go of all of your friends. But the really bad realization is if you do it really well, you might have to do that multiple times throughout your life.” He explains that every major transformation comes with hard decisions and most people think the hardest part of growth is taking the first step. It isn’t. The hardest part is realizing that every major chapter of your life may require you to leave behind people, places, and versions of yourself that no longer align with who you’re becoming. “If you’ve truly changed, don’t expect every friendship to come with you. Sometimes growth means finding your people more than once.” Every meaningful change eventually forces the same question: “Do I want to move forward on my own, or do I want to go back with my friends?” One of the most honest conversations I’ve heard about why so few people actually change.

Alanna Smith on going to school while also working on her graduate degree(in psychology) “It’s hard, it’s really hard. I think I got nine weeks to go in this course and part of it is I’m writing a thesis. So it’s a lot of ground work, and busy work… it’s going well, I’m very much looking forward to it being done and having a little bit of brain space free. It’s been really rewarding as well to know that you can do multiple hard things at once. I’m really proud of myself”

jihoon wants us to promise to have more fun at treasure concerts, film with your left hand and have fun with your right hand 🤙🏻 #지훈 🐶 you’re asking how yesterday was? yesterday was seriously so fun. it really was fun, but hmmm you guys need to have even more fun.. 🐶 you guys need to have more fun. teumes can def go harder than this, but you’re holding back. you guys can def do more, seriously, you really can but everyone kind of hesitates a little. just go out there and enjoy the atmosphere, got it? ok~? 🐶 i’m not saying don’t film or anything like that. you can film, it’s fine, i don’t mind it, because i think that’s the fans’ freedom. but i mean… film with one hand, your left hand, and use your right hand to hold your lightstick and have fun 🐶 but when both hands are on your phone like this… and i’m right in front of you… why are you looking at me through a camera filter first? you came to see me, so why… when i’m standing right in front of you, are you still only looking at me through your phone? it’s just a little disappointing to me 🐶 i’m not saying anyone is doing something wrong or anything like that, i’m just saying it feels a bit sad. i’m literally right in front of you, so why are you still looking at me inside your phone even when i’m right here? 🐶 and i know you want to take pictures, it’s okay. you can film it, keep it. it’s fine, because it’s not prohibited. in concerts where filming isn’t banned, ofc you can film. you want to take photos. ofc you want to take photos when your favorite singer is right in front of you, ofc you want to film it. i know that, we all know that. you can film it but film with your left hand and have fun with your right hand. let’s all make that promise. seriously, let’s really do it, film with your left hand and have fun with your right hand 🐶 because… when i’m like this, from up on stage when we look out like this, your gazes, your lightsticks, those kinds of things... when i feel like i’m directly interacting with each and every one of you like that.. i get out of breath like i might die, i get dizzy and everything, and my adrenaline gets pushed to the limit. but then if it’s all just iphone 17 pro maxes everywhere… it feels a bit disappointing 🐶 but i really do like that you film. i just feel a little regretful like if you film with one hand and have fun with the other.. like use your right hand properly to have fun, and use your left hand to film and capture everything… that’s how it should be, i guess. that kind of feeling 🐶 i’m not saying this to hear sorry from you guys. that’s not what i mean. i’m not saying you’re doing anything wrong, i just mean let’s all have fun together like that 💬 but oppa, if you’re playing with your right hand, the video in your left hand does get shaky so i just jump around and go all out 🐶 but even that shaking… i think of it as part of the live feeling

“And anyway, I wanted to clarify something that was told to me in a half-assed way by some fanatical people, because I don’t call these people fans, I call them fanatics. And thank God they eventually remove themselves from the community on their own, because fundamentally they were never really part of the community to begin with, given the kinds of actions and thoughts they have. Now, you all know very well that there are people among you who help me, whom I absolutely welcome and appreciate a lot, actually, probably more than what they even give me. And as a result, I do have a human, working relationship that goes beyond just being a fan, right? So of course, in certain circumstances, because of specific skills people have and the kind of help they give, it’s obvious that more conversations start happening and a more developed human relationship begins, beyond a simple… you know. That’s how life works. It’s not like I can live my life and talk to every single one of you in the exact same way. It’s normal,choices are made based on the situations that come up. Anyone who’s mentally healthy understands this and tries to build a human relationship with me in some way. But those who aren’t healthy think, “Well, why does she talk to her and not to me?” But I can’t talk to everyone. Even though I try to do it in my own way, if I started talking to every single one of you, my life would obviously be over. And I think that applies to anyone who has a community or a group of people who follow them. So then this thing came out about me going to Disneyland. But, holy crap, as they say, maybe! Maybe I would go to Disneyland! And even if I did go to Disneyland, it’s none of your fucking business if I want to go to Disneyland. What the fuck do you care if I want to go to Disneyland? It’s my business. Also, I haven’t been to Disneyland in 18 years, last time was with a friend from high school. But even then, it’s still my business if I want to go with whomever I want: if I’m dating someone or not, if I want to go with a friend, if I want to go with a fan I choose from among you. Is it my business or not? I mean, is everything okay with you people? And then, what the fuck does it change for you? Do you appreciate me for who I am? Good. Appreciate me for who I am and for what I do, not for who I’m with or where I go. Sometimes it feels like I’m talking to a jealous girlfriend. But I already, normally, believe me, don’t get involved with certain people, or a certain type of person, because jealousy and unresolved issues really bother me. Let me explain better. Let’s say I get into a relationship. My partner should never make jealousy scenes. You want to go to Disneyland with your friends? Go. Don’t go. What do I care? That’s your business. It’s great that our paths cross and we have a beautiful, loving life together, but that doesn’t erase my other relationships or my other bonds. Sometimes, with some people in this community, it feels like I’m dating them, like they think I’m their girlfriend. That’s not normal. You’re fanatics, you’re not well. So it’s actually a good thing if you don’t come to the meetups I organize. I even send you a kiss and bye-bye, good riddance, because you’re not right in the head. Anyway, what was I saying… maybe I’d really like to go to Disneyland, but honestly I don’t even have the head for Disneyland anymore. I’ve got other stuff going on in my brain, as they say, and for now I prefer working over going to Disneyland. Also, instead of Disneyland, I would’ve preferred the Maldives, if we really want to say it. Or at least the sea, one way or another. But if I go to London, if I go to Paris, it’s for one reason: to have the chance to work and create content. And on the other hand, to meet you. So if I go to Paris that day, it’s because I’m trying to organize a day where I can go and meet you for an hour or so, because I’m only there for a day. And I hope you can understand that.”
