So, if talking to strangers seems daunting to you, it might help to think that by doing so, you could give someone the gift of being seen.

Email is a time debt that most people participate in each day. If you send an email now, you are committing to reading the reply or responding with an additional message later. Every email you send creates a small debt that you have to pay back at a later time.

"Most people spend it getting dressed, getting ready, and rushing out the door. What if that time was spent making yourself a better person? What if you woke up an hour *before* you needed to each day and worked on yourself? How much better would you be at work, in your relationships, and as a person?"

It’s easy to say something should do everything well because saying something is easy doesn’t involve any work, or require any tradeoffs. But building products is all about tradeoffs. When there are no tradeoffs in the conversation you’re having, you know you aren’t building, you’re just talking. But it was time to build.
