If you’re curious and love to learn, there has never been a better time to be alive.
Important clarification: Entitled people believe simply leaning against a wall should reveal a door for them. High agency people learn that if they take the time and effort to build a door, then they can go through walls
It seems a common experience in the lives of people with high agency is that they, at some point, metaphorically, lean against a wall and discover that there is a hidden door. That some constraint they’ve been told about turns out not to hold, and this allows them to experience something positive. And from this they get into the habit of testing if walls are actually doors, and the more they do so, the more examples of hidden doors they find, and the more inclined they are to look for them. Far from the only thing that sets them apart, but having that experience can be transformative

True.. The problem is “believing in meritocracy” isn’t really a choice. You need to first believe in your personal agency. And where does that come from?

O-H
Study finds lower tips on wknds. Their hypothesis is it’s bc they’re also going to movies and donating at church, without asking the question who’s more likely to go out for dinner on week days
A study finds that when restaurant patrons spend money elsewhere, they cut back on their gratuities on.wsj.com/4uDyzOm
All feedback I’ve ever gotten on decks & writing:
90% what to add
9% what’s confusing
1% what to remove
Adding is easy. Cutting is hard, but so valuable
This mirrors today's misunderstanding about Vitamin D and the sun. We know healthy people have higher levels of Vitamin D, but instead of recommending more sun, we recommend supplements. (5/6)
