Evangelizing Incentives That Combine Self Interest With Collective Benefit & A Few Other Things I'm Still Trying To Figure Out

Everything is arbitrary and under-constrained if you take too long with it. It’s like saying the same word over and over until it sounds weird.

You’ll need to be split-brained, with a nerdy confused mode as existential conscience, but also a jocky action mode pushing forward based on “gut” assessment.

It’s hard to move forward from a full analysis paralysis. It is easier to keep moving once you’ve committed to a direction.

Sure, but don’t let go of the analytical part. That’s needed to be a self-aware, complex person. It’ll influence direction by laying out the criteria for your gut.
