Tinkering
I am driven by bursts of energy. Sometimes I don't get a lot done, but then I get a lot done in a short amount of time. This is especially true when I work with great people.

PROJECTS
Better CRMs
Many people, including me, work with CRMs daily… It often feels like I am working for the CRM instead of the CRM working for me.
The Tool to Build LLM Tools
Google was not the first search company, but it was the first to introduce PageRank. This made all the difference. Since the advent of GPT-4, I've been anticipating the emergence of a new Google. However, I'm skeptical that Perplexity or You.com represent the next evolution of search.
My Writing Effort
I am a talkative person and tend to embellish my thinking with unnecessary wording.[^1] I started this blog to force more structured thinking.
Codifying Succession
In 2019, while in school I visited a classmate's family business in Barcelona. Not only did they successfully diversify into other business models, but they also achieved a form of unity I did not know existed among 3rd- or 4th-generation businesses. They planned out the whole day with multiple stops and even gave the 80-year-old grandma a platform to speak. By contrast, in Germany, one reads about countless feuds and fights between relatives.

This seems to be the most comprehensive book about hedge funds. It is interesting that, except for RenCap, nobody consistently keeps his or her edge.

HOBBY
Skiing
I learned skiing quite young and till this day its my favorite hobby.

HOBBY
Kite-Surfing
My friends don't belief me that i can surf because i always leave for a vacation to go surfing but then i have no pictures to show for it (pretty hard to hold a handle bar, balance on a board and to take a video...) My 2024 goal was to be able to surf independently and to do turns. I also convinced a friendly guy on the beach to take a video of me! Yay
HOBBY
Junk Journaling
