First Principles

Starting from the beginning

What happens when you go back to basics?

When you give up the ego that comes with “time served” and go back to day 1, it’s an admission that “success” doesn’t matter.

I say success with quotes because most of what we call success is just a boast to others.  You can say a lot when it comes to the mask that “success” places on ourselves and ego, but that conversation is for another time.

Back to first principles.

Focusing on the basics, what happens when we get from A -> B improves the foundation of all of our work. That takes shedding ego, because we don’t want to feel placated.

Screw that.

The little things matter, especially if we want to take the genius inside of us and share it with the world. That makes a strong foundation.

Our genius is a massive tool to wield, and without a strong foundation to support it, it will crush itself.
