“The weight of overthinking” Two years ago, I had an idea—a spark with real potential. But instead of acting, I let what ifs take over: What if I fail? What if it doesn’t work? While I hesitated, someone else acted on a similar idea. Today, they’ve raised $5M in funding. It stung, but it also woke me up. I’ve learned that overthinking steals time and opportunity. It’s not about being first; it’s about doing. So now, I’m building. It’s not easy. Some days are still tough. But I’d rather be in the arena, failing forward, than sitting on the sidelines overthinking. If you’ve been hesitating to start, let this be a sign: It’s never too late to act, but the longer you wait, the harder it gets.

You don’t have to be friends with every colleague. Sometimes, it’s best to just keep it professional and let them be colleagues. . . . Thoughts...?

We all know the drill with "Manager Mode"-hire great people, give them space, and manage through layers. It’s the classic approach, polished and perfected in business schools. But here’s the catch: it often leaves room for what I like to call “profes

Your comfort zone feels safe, but it’s the quietest way to let your dreams slip away. Failure, on the other hand, teaches, builds resilience, and pushes you forward. When you stay comfortable, you’re choosing familiarity over growth, routine over
