Every time I've become more successful, it's because I started doing something cringe that I was convinced would make everyone hate me and finally see me as the fraud I am

I don’t really feel a sense of imposter syndrome because I never claim to be someone I’m not.

Like, I never claim to be an expert at the stuff I talk about.
I just talk about what’s worked for me and what the evidence says about the topic, and that seems to work pretty well 🙂
I continue to scandalize myself by making money doing things other people are much better at

Comedians don’t tell jokes because they’re funny. They tell jokes until they’re funny.
Don’t mistake talent/luck with years of boring practice and failing (often publicly).
It's incredible when someone on here who's got an actual personal brand, as well as an IRL career with significant social capital, goes completely apeshit crazy over some current thing and stakes it all on being an extreme voice on one side of it.

Don’t get people who build personal brands that require them to forever regurgitate a bland, strained version of their personality

weird headspace: if there's a long tunnel of toiling away without payoff before light breaks, I can't just be the guy who can survive the toiling, I have to be the guy who can chose the toiling even if he doesn't know he's the guy who can survive the toiling

There is nothing a hater could say to me that my imposter syndrome hasn't said to me first.
