Ambitious men struggle with an impossibly high set of standards we place on ourselves to be world class in every single area of life at all times simultaneously. Irony it leads to shame and crashes. I am not sure how healthy this been for me. I’m now learning to give myself grace

So for anyone who at some point in the past felt let down by me or that I didn’t show up at the high level I set. Forgive me. I probably felt I needed to be perfect to be acceptable and went too hard for too long and you probably caught me during the resulting burnout. I am sorry

And yeh I get I’m not supposed to be anything else but a perfect smart funny witty intellectual king on this site and this is a little vulnerable and personal for the medium but that’s exactly the fucking bullshit mirage I need to break. Maybe you do too? Here’s your permission
