becoming a founder has made me simultaneously much smarter & much dumber smarter: learning about growth, bd, sales, marketing, value creation/capture, protocol design, strategy dumber: no idea whats happening in the world. stopped reading books/news, i literally don't do anything besides work and spend time w/ family

to expand a bit, I’m aware of what’s happening in the world, but unsure of what I can do. Building something and creating and thinking about the future is a coping mechanism of sorts.

Much better off without news - try The Economist sub, they have an espresso bulletin every morning that's quite good (and you can dive into the full length ones you're interested in)

@hyper might have put it best: you have to be the dumbest in your team (as the ceo). I think that can have a good outcome.

I love that self realisation/awareness that apprehends "this making me dumber." Staying sharp on <X> is a managed portfolio of time allocation, eh?! Your comment reminded me of (as a related idea) an old "Joel on Software" essay, where he pointed to different kinds of programming, & that some of them made you dumber.

Take time off - spend time with friends and family. Burn out is real and you won’t get your time back. 2 to 4 hours Saturdays and Sundays away should make you more effective

No idea what’s happening in the world is arguably a great thing actually.

In my book your “dumber” is a humble brag 😅
