About

My goal is to describe the basic building blocks of explanatory knowledge to simplify effective action and decisions making

“If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough” - Albert Einstein

To understand complex ideas, we first need to master the basics. If someone uses complicated words, high-level ideas, or isolated comparisons, they likely don't know what they're talking about. Focusing on the basics is the best way to build our knowledge.

I aim to define the fundamental [ building blocks of reality and our human belief systems. As well as using them to construct techniques for optimal action and decision-making. This includes strategies for:

Reasoning in the face of complex systems
Setting killer goals
Consuming information effectively
Running and coordinating teams & businesses
Optimizing energy and attention levels
Being present

What I’m currently working on

✉️ The Do-It newsletter → Every month I share what I'm working on and enjoying
📑 The 5 acts model → a living e-book to break down the basics of how the world works
📂 Notion templates → Like Life Goals OS. A complete goal-management system.
📱 Apps → like: the Remynder Ritual Goalbot, which helps you set and accomplish goals

This is the place for you if you also enjoy these topics:

Reality, human nature, and science
Leaving the world better than you found it
Improving your effectiveness through self-awareness and specifying your intentions
Social and Technological innovations with a focus on decentralization
Human Progress and effective altruism
How knowledge creation and Artificial General Intelligence works

And, probably the wrong place if you're a fan of:

Merely optimizing how efficiently you work
Talking about issues but not solving them
Short-term zero-sum success over non-zero-sum dynamics
(Tech) doomsday prophecies
Believing that unsolvable problems exist
Unfalsifiable theories such as macroeconomics and postmodernism

My background

I’m a techy with organizational and leadership skills:

Active within and founder of social impact initiatives since 2018
From design intern to product manager to COO at Formelio. From start-up to scale-up. 2018 - 2023 and running
Notion evangelist since 2020

I seek to bridge the gap between complex theories and real-world applications by making dense information understandable, decision-making simple, and murky problems clear.

What I believe in

Progress
Optimalism & efficacy
Reality
Optimism
Fallibilism (Popperian & Deutschian Epistemology)
Rationality
Science
