Controversy

November, 2021

10 semi-controversial things I believe:

  1. True free thinking is seldom rewarded and more likely punished.
  2. Rules must be understood to be broken.
  3. There is no reason to wait for progress. You must make it yourself.
  4. Ownership matters but financial independence is the goal.
  5. Obedience is for children and dogs. Doing anything meaningful means you will have to disobey.
  6. Unwilligness to discuss real issues is a form of cowardice.
  7. Hard work gets rewarded with more hard work.
  8. Smart work gets rewarded with options.
  9. It is impossible to get accustomed to working with incompetent people.
  10. Reaching out to help someone can be to your detriment. You should want “your paw to have claws.” as Zarathustra said.
