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
