I think I have a much more honest assessment of myself. People talk about first principles and I think that phrase gets overused. It's easy to hide behind justifications or philosophies to feel good about something. But I think oftentimes the reality is pretty straightforward. I can hold his voice in my head quite often, which is interesting. He never wasn't an entrepreneur.

He never worked in tech, none of that stuff. But the amount of times I hear his voice being like, that sounds like bullshit.

The most honest answer to that is that it's a very personal thing. I am happiest when I am trying to build something that I believe in and that I think is important. And I'm pretty unhappy when I'm not. I'm just wired that way. And I don't know, I think a boss I had early in my career, what's his philosophy? And he was like, Aristotle believed in the active realization of human potential.

That phrase stuck in my mind. When do I feel like my time is well spent? Do I feel like I'm actively trying to realize my potential, but also humanity's potential?
