Products like Facebook and Twitter are spaces that people don't just use but exist in. They are environments that form behavior. .. People act differently on Twitter, Facebook, Quora, 4chan, Snapchat, not because these are all different types of people but because of the way these spaces are designed. We should learn how to create spaces to guide and encourage behavior. .. The point is that every space has attributes that form behavior. If you built a park with no trash cans, people would throw their trash on the ground.

10) You can make enough money but you can never have enough reputation
This is a line I stole from Warren Buffet and I love it. If you pursue reputation, profits follow.

The best way is always to stop when you are going good and when you know what will happen next. If you do that every day … you will never be stuck. Always stop while you are going good and don’t think about it or worry about it until you start to write the next day. That way your subconscious will work on it all the time. But if you think about it consciously or worry about it you will kill it and your brain will be tired before you start.

I never come back to a blank page; I always finish about halfway through. Hemingway taught me the finest trick : “When you are going good, stop writing.” You don’t go on writing and writing until you come to the end of it, because when you do, then you say, well, where am I going to go next? You make yourself stop and you walk away. And you can’t wait to get back because you know what you want to say next.
