Leverage begins when your work keeps working after you stop touching it. - Kpaxs

High-agency people have this weird immunity to embarrassment. And the more you look at it the more you realize it's not that they're braver or or born without the shame gene.

It's that they relocated the shame. they moved the embarrassment button.

It's still there, they're not sociopaths, it's just wired to something completely different than everyone else's.

For most people the button is wired to: being seen wanting something and not immediately having it. Being caught trying. Looking dumb. Getting told no.

For high-agency people the button got rewired to a single thing: not trying. That's the only thing that makes them cringe.

Blame is emotionally satisfying and operationally weak.

The thing about yesterday is that it's already compressed into your nervous system. You can't un-live it, the question is whether you're too busy arguing with the past to accept it.

The flex is waking up and deciding that today is a different game entirely.
