Episode description
Some truths are too good to say only once. This week, David re-blasts five timelessly powerful ideas from the past—about identity, investing, serenity, frameworks, and questioning—and brings them together in a fresh 2026 mix. One quietly powerful idea runs underneath: What you do, repeatedly, becomes who you are.
Along the way:
- A single line that might rewire how you think about your own habits (and your portfolio)
- A Silicon Valley inversion that flips investing on its head
- Shakespeare, serenely out-investing most of Wall Street
- Why Warren Buffett shouldn’t have bought Amazon—and why that’s good news
- And a modern upgrade to “question everything” for the age we’re actually living in
