It's proximity to the result, can you see what changed because of you, close enough to notice. Passion doesn't guarantee that. Proximity does. https://yassinebentaleb.com/en/meaningfulness-of-work/ #Impact #MeaningfulWork09 Sep 2026 09:39 +0000at://did:plc:dkifjfagg44krllfizu5laen/app.bsky.feed.post/3mv3akjuklx2xhttps://bsky.app/profile/yassinebentaleb.bsky.social/post/3muzqoamzoe2lThe AU just opened Cohort 2 of the EAN Fellowship: 12 months of training & mentorship for 100 African entrepreneurs across AU Member States.

Intention is a decision: what changes, by when, what you're trading for it. Most goals fail because nobody checks which one they're holding before they start. Two questions, five minutes. https://yassinebentaleb.com/en/the-ambition-test/ #Intention #GoalSetting08 Sep 2026 09:28 +0000at://did:plc:dkifjfagg44krllfizu5laen/app.bsky.feed.post/3muyphx3qif2ihttps://bsky.app/profile/yassinebentaleb.bsky.social/post/3muw6fvgjhh2rNailing one task and being good at your job aren't the same skill. One's local, the other is a pattern held over time, including the days nobody's watching. Mastery comes from the second kind. #Mastery #Work07 Sep 2026 09:17 +0000at://did:plc:dkifjfagg44krllfizu5laen/app.bsky.feed.post/3muw6fvgjhh2rhttps://bsky.app/profile/yassinebentaleb.bsky.social/post/3mutnd6skfc2jWhat is the one thing you would keep doing even on a bad day? Not the full routine, the minimum version. If you can't name it, you probably don't have a system yet, just a habit that's been getting lucky on good days. #Continuity #Reflection06 Sep 2026 09:06 +0000at://did:plc:dkifjfagg44krllfizu5laen/app.bsky.feed.post/3mutnd6skfc2jhttps://bsky.app/profile/yassinebentaleb.bsky.social/post/3mus4yij5ki2iArab SMEs Summit 2026 hits Baghdad Nov 18–20.

The daily stuff, not the big stuff. Life fills unclaimed space with whatever's easiest, not whatever's yours. Worth five minutes this weekend to check what's running on autopilot. #Intention #Reflection05 Sep 2026 13:02 +0000at://did:plc:dkifjfagg44krllfizu5laen/app.bsky.feed.post/3murjzxjwok2fhttps://bsky.app/profile/yassinebentaleb.bsky.social/post/3muooj535e42uA time block competes with everything else on the calendar and usually loses. What works instead: a trigger tied to a physical action, closing a door, the same headphones, so you're moving before motivation has to show up. #Continuity #DeepWork04 Sep 2026 09:44 +0000at://did:plc:dkifjfagg44krllfizu5laen/app.bsky.feed.post/3muooj535e42uhttps://bsky.app/profile/yassinebentaleb.bsky.social/post/3mummqwqejb2hImpact DOTS covered the Arab Impact Summit 2026: Oct 5–6, Amman, by alfanar Venture Philanthropy & Anara Impact Capital.

They get stuck because they lack a repeatable system. Four pillars, sustained by a fifth element, System, at the center.
