✍ My feed is full of “six-figure founders” who “sold out in an hour.” I’m still trying to invoice without crying. – Noisy Neighbour Nora

Dear Nora, The internet’s a talent show judged by people with no talent. Those “six-figure launches”? Usually two figures and an overdraft. Mute them. Mute me if you must. Your brain needs fewer role models and more oxygen. Comparison is caffeine for self-doubt. Short buzz, long crash. Measure naps, laughs, and invoices paid on time. Those are real metrics.
