"I said this to my new dentist this week. I said that I trusted him more than my previous dentist, who looked the part too much."

LOL, I hope you didn't tell your dentist that he was unsightly or unkempt ...

Enjoyable post!

I love this. Daniel's anti-YC post. The Taleb point about favoring someone who doesn't "look the part" (because they must have had to work extra hard). The chuckle I got from USDC.

I feel called out that I’m not taking enough shots. Thanks for that.

Also, I used working backwards from what you want this morning in a one pager. Appreciate the reminder.

Keep up the awesome work 😎

The "what people see" meme is so on the mark. It takes some thick skin to keep standing and walking forward past each X, but I swear I can feel the check mark getting closer. : )

Loved this - and exactly the approach I'm trying to do. Now I just need more discipline about when to give up on ideas.

This was a great piece, and gets me excited to be in the arena more. Thanks for your wisdom as always Louie!
