I feel strongly about:
1. Libertine, do-it-yourself individualism isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. The foundation for developing hope beyond yourself, existential meaning and soul-rest is found only in recognition/dependence upon trusted ‘others’ - it is realized in the space between ‘us’.

2. Hyper-hurry, getshitdone-ism & millionnaire-by-thirty machinations lead all too often to self corrupting and ultimately inhuman, production-oriented modes of being.

3. Epistemic humility, understood as ones recognition of their cosmic contingency and finitude is key to developing the virtue/life habits for success in any field.
