A middle-class trait I can’t shake off is slight guilt about playing with no-practical-value ideas during “work hours”, like reading a philosophy book 9-5 on a weekday.
Feels like playing hooky. One reason I blog is to manufacture practical justification. “It’s for a post”

How much better off would a business be if the employees were allowed an hour of self study each day instead of just pretending to work?

“Allowed”, “study”, “one hour”... man you’re so deeply trapped I feel totally free now 😂

I agree it’s totally ironic. I’ve under earned by $1M the last 5 yrs because I’ve chosen free time and startups over Wall St or Big Tech jobs. I’m on my 4th startup. But most people refuse to suffer uncertainty. So I propose a way to suffer less from certainty
