It’s so difficult to go from being an underdog to being successful (happens to 1% of people?), and it seems so unlikely when you’re slogging, that... when they get successful, it seems like only 1-5% of *those* are able to adapt and reorient What got you here won’t get you there

success- the more outsized the success, and the more quickly it happens- can have a way of yanking you sharply out of your context. your usual coping mechanisms stop working. your social reality transmogrifies in front of you. it’s incredibly chaotic and annihilating https://t.co/ghR3pFQs3R
