Sink Then Swim

“If I always did what I was qualified to do, I’d be pushing a broom somewhere” – Naval Ravikant

My mom’s favorite saying is, “Sometimes its easier to beg forgiveness than ask for permission”.

There is already plenty of people out there already doing what you want to do, and many times with a lot less qualification than you think.

It’s easy to talk yourself out of something. “Well if I thought of it I’m sure a million others have as well”. Yea… but did they execute?

(All of which is very different than “fake it till you make it”.  That can land you in some trouble. People love calling out bullshit, so don’t bullshit.)

Just get started.

Screw up. Sink. Sink then swim.
