Sam Altman on the biggest mistake talented and hard-working people often make Many people work hard and stay productive, but they don’t spend enough time thinking about what they should work on. Taking time to choose the right problem can make a huge difference. One of the best ways to clarify your thoughts is through writing. When faced with a difficult problem or confusion, writing forces you to organize your ideas and find solutions. It helps you think deeply, uncover gaps, and gain new insights. Before jumping into action, pause and reflect. Ask yourself: Is this the most important thing to work on? Writing can guide you toward better decisions and more meaningful work. Success isn’t just about working hard—it’s about working on the right things.
