  • What else do you think you are supposed to do, when if you run out of time, you are put on a treadmill of work, so you don’t have any time or energy to pivot. I ironically used to think I’m smarter than others, because I know I’m not smart, as confusing as that sounds. I thought “Other’s think they are smart, special, better than everyone, I don’t, and I treat myself as a tool, and think realistically”. Nope, the exceptional people who climb out, have special experience, luck, or better genes. No, I will be buying freedom the very hard way.

    Most people probably had the exact same idea at some point. I thought I could work smarter with automation, that if I can’t be a good trader, I will just develop some app and leverage up to a million users with minimum maintenance of the app. Turns out, those disadvantages do matter just enough.
