Im a super optimist. And I say this in the most optimistic way.

Society, globally, was built against the human species for the last 2+ decades. It’s really a travesty. 

It presents the largest opportunity since the renaissance.

When have you grown most, In hard times or good times? (I ask this with genuine interest in your answer)

I’ve spent most of my life in a complacent setting, growing very little. The last 2yrs, as a founder, I’ve had some of the hardest years of my life (professionally and personally), and I  have grown more in positive-sum ways than any other year before. I think this “signal” scales from local systems to global systems. 

I believe this is the essence of the weak-times make weak-man etc. meme. 

interested in your thoughts.

What’s making you so optimistic for the future?

As a fellow optimist I feel my energy heading in the other direction.
