📉 Public Markets & Private Pain 🤳
Everyone who has any money in any market will struggle to create today
Today is one of those days where everyone will be distracted
Feeling the markets gyrate will destroy your creativity
When the daily swings exceed your monthly wages, how can you focus?
Markets are reflections of opinions
They put prices to vibes
Quantifying the energy of humanity
Seeing people I love get absolutely destroyed by numbers on a screen is harrowing
My 9-figure mistakes
I was fired from Stripe, did not join Ethereum full time & said no to angel investment that would have gone up 10,000x
Each mistake cost me: notionally & emotionally
But I breathe today & run fast & kite high & help as many kids as I can
We go on
But there was so much pain in private
You are just a few clicks away from learning something new
Everything can change when you create something yourself
If you just invest, you wait for others to create value in the world
HackDesign.org + Sketch.app = My freedom ($99)
When I hit rock bottom I did the free course
I grabbed a copy of Sketch & got started
This was way better than investing. It helped with my private pain.
Putting a Price on Pain
I hope you move on from the public market & the pain you feel today.
Do not let it destroy you.
There is much to create.
We need homes & rockets & services & tools.
You can be part of all of that.
LFG 🚀
