But you said like, looking back on your time at Facebook, you...

realized that some of the things that you were proudest of were moments when you took a risk.

Can you actually remember some of those experiences and tell me some stories of like what you were so proud of that felt uncomfortable and scary at the time?

Yeah.

I am curious though, like,

Sounds like you built that practice at Facebook and you started to learn how powerful it was to take risks.

And then you realized that you weren't naturally doing it.

You had to push yourself to do it.

And so I think one year you built a daily practice around risk.

Will you just explain some of that?

It sounds like from naming it and reflecting on it, it made it easier to identify both like what felt risky and when you should take a risk.

It's so interesting.

I think of you as such a craftsman.

It's actually the word that came up for me when I was thinking about you and thinking about talking to you today because obviously you're a designer and you're a craftsman because of that.

And I feel like your book was actually all about technology.

taking management and turning it into a craft.

And it actually turns out that what you did with risk is try to turn it into a craft, like believing that it was something you could actually get better at through a daily practice.

I am curious though, what impact did it have on you?

What did it unlock for you to actually name it and see it?

Totally.
