The Manual #51 - 31 Lessons
I published this video on my Oliur Online channel, sharing 31 lessons that I think are worth learning. I think they can apply to people of all ages, not just those in their 20s. Some of my favourites:
Keep doing hard things. Hard things then become easy.
Compounding is your best friend.
Do things that scale.
You don’t need a morning routine.
Nothing is more valuable than time.
Wealth > money and status.
Get used to rejection.
Nothing worth having comes easy.
Create more than you consume.
No one owes you anything.
This video answers one of the most common questions I get “what monitor should I get for my Mac?”.
I’ve put together what I think are the best monitors for a Macbook or Mac right now.
I don’t think it’ll change much any time soon but I’m also hoping Apple update their own displays this year.

A collection of links to stuff I think are worth sharing.
Dive Club Podcast — Was great to be on a new podcast. I decline 99% of podcast invites but was a pleasure to be on this one.
Quick Journal — A minimal journaling app.
Webstudio — It’s pretty much an open source and free version of Webflow. I’m looking forward to giving it a go for future projects.
Eagle 4.0 — My go to image bookmarking app has been updated. Now you can use plugins to enhance Eagle.
Coding with natural language — With the release of Cursor and other similar apps, it’s wild how much it will change the world of coding. It’s completely opened my mind up. Now anyone should be able to make stuff without having to learn code properly.
Umbrel — Your own personal home cloud. The product looks awesome, so does the OS and so does the website. The aesthetics are on point here.
Clay — It’s like a CRM for your relationships. Pretty smart. And again, the aesthetics are on point.
