HOW BILLIONAIRES USE REASONING AND LOGIC TO SUCCEED Elon: “Though most of our life we get through it by reasoning through analogy, which essentially means copying what other people do with slight variations. And you have to do that, otherwise mentally you wouldn’t be able to get through the day.” Huang, founder of Nvidia: “I show people how to reason through things all the time. I've made it possible for them to see how I reasoned through something… and it empowers them. This is how you can reason through something that's super ambiguous…incalculable…or very scary. “ Branson: “To launch a business means successfully solving problems. Solving problems means listening." Buffett: “When people tell me they've learned from experience, I tell them the trick is to learn from other people's experience.”

🇺🇦🇩🇪Happy Easter from a Ukrainian Dancer on German TV t.co/SVT7sgOPhz

🇺🇦ELON PREDICTS: "ODESA WILL FALL TOO" Today, Russia conducted a major series of strikes on Ukraine's infrastructure, causing a wide-scale blackout in Odesa, the country's largest port and main access to the Black Sea. Yesterday, Elon posted: "There is no chance of Russia taking all of Ukraine, as the local resistance would be extreme in the west, but Russia will certainly gain more land than they have today. The longer the war goes on, the more territory Russia will gain until they hit the Dnepr, which is tough to overcome. However, if the war lasts long enough, Odessa will fall too. Whether Ukraine loses all access to the Black Sea or not is, in my view, the real remaining question. I recommend a negotiated settlement before that happens." Source: @elonmusk, X, Telegraph
