What a beautiful piece, Gil!! I've been feeling this too lately. I find myself now wanting to run in the other direction and to just stop. Only I find the stopping, even a pause, almost feels unnatural now...

I really appreciate you naming that. The fact that stopping can feel unnatural now is part of what I’m trying to understand too.

Yes … I’ve been noticing this pattern a lot too, especially among very successful founders. I’m curious whether you’ve seen anything that helps that integration happen earlier … I’m trying to write about that in my next essay.
