1,500 days straight on Duolingo. That's over 4 years of opening an app every single day. Not because I needed to. Because I said I would. The streak isn't about language learning anymore. It's about keeping a promise to yourself.

Did you know a Chinese ice cream chain has more outlets than McDonald's? 🤯 You probably never heard of Mixue, but Zhang Hongchao's story is wild: ❌ Failed motorcycle repair ❌ Failed fish farming ❌ Ice cart demolished 4 times ✅ Never gave up on ¥1 ice cream Today: 36,000 stores, RMB 15B revenue

A HBR study found that 67% of professionals admit their daily habits are holding them back from success. But what if I told you the answer isn’t working harder—it’s working smarter? When you don’t deliberately cultivate good habits, nature abhors a vacuum—bad ones rush in to fill the space.

In just 10 days, an AI chatbot most Westerners have never heard of has done something remarkable: dominance of China's digital landscape. Tencent's Yuanbao has claimed the throne as the #1 most downloaded free app in Apple's App Store in China, pushing DeepSeek to #2 and ByteDance's Doubao to #4.

Just migrated my entire website to Astro with Cursor AI as my co-pilot. Was it reckless to let AI work on a key digital property? Probably, especially when it actually involved merging three WordPress sites on the domain into one. Was it worth it? Without a doubt.

Milestone unlocked. Aiming for the minimum of 1 lesson a day compounds over the years. Duolingo is my most consistent habit, along with daily reading. Aim to read the minimum of 1 minute a day and you’ll find you’re reading the whole chapter or more on normal days.
