Finally make it.
Look around.
“Oh. This was just for validation.”
Awkward.
Turns out becoming successful to prove something to other people is a terrible plan, because once you succeed… the people move on, the applause stops, and you’re stuck with yourself.
And now you have a new project:
👉 figuring out why you needed the validation in the first place.
Congrats on the success, though.
Now comes the real work.
