Today, I re-listened a VERY HONEST interview with Chamath Palihapitiya (@chamath) on @TKPPodcast.
For the 3rd time.
He is is an extremely confident humble person and the talk is pure gold. Highly recommend it. Hats off to @ShaneAParrish!
I combined key learnings below 👇
It is valuable when you can speak the truth.
Most people are not in the position to be as candid as they want to be.
When you talk about what you’ve gone through it is useful to people, especially when you talk in simple and plain-spoken terms.
It demystifies your 'greatness’, makes it more normal, and lets others relate.
Many people have to do things that are motivated by other people's perceptions of them motivated by the pressure that is extorted by people that are very close around them i.e. friends and family.
It leads to an inevitable moment when people start questioning their happiness.
Younger generations are more honest to themselves.
They are willing to be happy in the way they defined it to themselves.
Older generations were just checking the boxes.
Many people realize that it is not the pattern to maximize their fulfillment.
