How do you reconcile that with Paul Graham’s advice to build something you yourself want?

Check this out: I actually think you’re pretty full of yourself. You’re super smart. I feel like you were somehow as a prince or a king to be as a kid. Then you clawed your way from Hungary all the way to the United States. You’ve done very well for yourself and you are proud.

Justifiably so I would argue. Now, in the short run, maybe you’ll alienate yourself by wearing this pride on the outside (you dial it back) but in the long run, as painful as it might be, I think it would serve you well. First it makes you noteworthy. Second it’ll ratchet up

Your ambition. Lastly there’s no better way to improve than to fail a little bit (if you’re rational, which of course you are). Now I’ve gone on a very long limb here, but do you see what I’m saying?

Yeah i do. It's not a bad read actually. I am pretty full of myself deep down and I have put in a lot of work to mask it (and i thought i was good at it). Kind of curious how did you figure it? So your point is i should undo it gradually and iterate?

I’d like to think I’m perceptive so now we know that makes two of us. 1. First thing I ever heard about you: Anna shows me a text where you tell her how handsome you are 2. Wedding in Hungary. Something Gabe me the impression that you were raised to be a king.

3. Your immigration story. Takes a lot of fight to achieve what you did. People who think “meh, I’m no one special” stay in Hungary 4. I’ve given you (what I thought was) constructive criticism. You were polite in Receiving it but there was a undertone of “grrrrrrrr to it haha.

5. You’re tall and good looking (afaict). Kind of a reinforcing prophephy. To answer your question: To learn to fly a plane, you start in a flight simulator. Then you fly with an instructor. Then you fly solo. Then you do a barrel roll. Just experiment and see what happens.
