Obsession beats discipline - go all-in on your craft until you either die or get reborn.

The bold choice is almost always better
Evidence
Regrets cluster around bold moves not taken rather than bold moves that failed. The asymmetry of opportunity means bold attempts have unlimited upside with limited downside. Playing it safe guarantees mediocrity.
Implication
When torn between bold and safe, choose bold. The bold choice is almost always better. Err on the side of action rather than caution.
Counter Belief
Boldness without wisdom is recklessness. Sometimes the safe choice is correct. Repeated bold failures exhaust resources and relationships. Context matters.
Example Application
Launch to the public instead of another month of polishing. The bold choice (shipping now) beats the safe choice (perfecting longer) almost always.
