You know, I was recently reminded that the fastest way to succeed to win is actually to fail.

That's the topic of today's micro show. And I know it sounds like a curveball, right? But this is literally true.

The fastest way to succeed is to fail. And yet the only reason this sounds goofy is because we are constantly falling into a trap.

Let me tell you about this trap because I have fallen into this trap so many times.

And most recently, I would say even just like a couple of weeks ago.

head is conceptual. It does not have to do with atoms

and the real world, right? It's not real until it gets out of your head and into the world. In some
