I think of as each of us having built up an intangible asset over the previous chapters of our lives, a distributed reservoir of credibility that is held in trust by your friends, mentors, and former colleagues. Your task is now to convert that intangible asset into a tangible asset
markets—these sublime machines that synthesize beliefs and aggregate them into prices—instantiate a secularized version of the sacred

If you can find the thing you do for its own sake, the compulsive piece of your process, and dial that up and up, beyond the imaginary ceiling for that activity you may be creating, my experience is the world comes to you for that thing and you massively outperform the others who don’t actually like hitting that particular ball.
