Sometimes you get advice that sticks with you from the most unexpected places. One for me is:

"Don't ignore it, that's what everyone else is doing."

The background:

A little over 10 years ago when we were buying a house for our growing family, it was not uncommon that the real estate listings did not include pictures. My realtor had said not to ignore these listings because that's what every other buyer is doing. We saw a listing that did not have pictures, but its description matched what we wanted. So we told the realtor we wanted to see the house. We saw it and fell in love with it, made an offer, which was accepted, and we still happily call it home.

I've used this advice since when it has come to things like Bitcoin, automation, and more recently things like ChatGPT/OpenAI.

Hey James, great story.

I love applying those small life lessons/principles across other areas of life as you say you did.
