Confidence, Competence, & Gravity

Reader, I’d like to share three thoughts I had this morning with you.

These ideas are presented as if they’re specific to me, but the takeaways are generalizable for almost anyone. I hope you enjoy.

Game Selection

First, listen to the song “It’s a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock & Roll)” by AC/DC. You can find it here.

Even in the 70’s, it was a herculean task to reach AC/DC’s level of success as a rock group – countless bands with only room for a few to make it huge.

Niche Content Sites

I take no pleasure in saying this – niche content websites are toast.

I’ve spent well over 1,000 hours of my life creating & growing sites like these as businesses, and I’m frustrated by the conclusions I draw here.

Five Years

“Where do you see yourself in five years?” is a classic interview question that I’ve had trouble with in the past.

It’s not a terribly complicated question to answer as a 26 year old software engineer, but as my mother knows from my battles with homework, making easy assignments into hard ones is something of a specialty for me.

Two Miracles

Full In Partners is a software growth equity & buyout firm in Midtown Manhattan. They’re also my employer of almost a year.

Starting work here in May 2022 has been two miracles for the price of one.
