Great newsletter. Also great point on Twitter. There’s no point being inauthentic to grow. the problem would only worsen as you got bigger. You’d feel more inclined to perform - and less like yourself as a result.
The point about the water bottle is well-received. I wonder if there’s a subconscious trigger.
Looking at the bigger water bottle, you’re like, “I’m not drinking ALL of that” but the smaller one seems much easier. It’s the difference between seeing a marathon as 26 (.2) miles or 1 mile 26 times. Nothing changes except the way we view it.

Thanks man! It's definitely hard to remain authentic throughout your growth, but it's definitely something I want to remind myself.

Dude, this was excellent. I loved the bit about the water. Visibility is super important and underrated.
Thanks man! I've been thinking about this water bottle thing for a while so glad I decided to write about it haha
