š¹ Rose ā Equity & Long-Term Thinking Reading The Navalmanack made me rethink how wealth really works. I learned the value of equity working in a tech startup environment, and that completely changed the way I look at work. Thatās why I left my role as Head of Recruitment to co-found a startup. More equity, more leverage, a better network of investors who play this game daily. Once you see it, you canāt unsee it. š š š

šµ Thorn ā The Limits of Productizing Yourself During the pandemic, I explored how to productize myself around niche skills and passions. I went deep into 1:1 consulting and content creation, studying how YouTubers were monetizing and migrating to Twitch for better revenue models. Looked great on paper. I stopped for two reasons: 1ļøā£ Not scalable. Both consulting and content were still tied to my time. 2ļøā£ I didnāt want visibility. I enjoyed communicating, but I wanted to be invisible. I was working with astrologyānot in the cheap, entertainment way, but as a cultural and symbolic system. But people just wanted fast, digestible content. Thatās where I disagreed with Naval: not everything should be productized. Some things need time to mature without corrupting their essence. So yeah, sometimes the best leverage isnāt turning yourself into a brandāitās staying in stealth mode, letting the asset grow, and striking at the right time. Lathe biosas. š š š
