you just sort of wake up on day and decide you are an adult the thing that authorises you is not a *person* but a reality you can dare to inhabit and if you manage to inhabit, it’s real but beware: people have very strong reality-distortion fields

becoming free is largely a lot managing your psychology as lots of factors to convince not to be simply show up, don’t die, don’t quit https://t.co/2lgmTdSoeV

I agree with ben horowitz that the hardest thing is managing your own psychology; everything else is just cranking widgets I'm not perfect at it, but pretty good https://t.co/wlxI7ZY8xu https://t.co/Y0D3aOQepn

and - fuck, this is where visa’s talking points all come together don’t they - the way you do that is storytelling https://t.co/UWOGF4AVlB

IMO this can be mitigated by finding people who support and encourage you through your failures, and by managing your psychology, which IME is done substantially via storytelling. ideally “full-stack” storytelling https://t.co/uDEt9YUlOd
