I'm really enjoying these open play-books Leo. I have a thing for domain names and have purchased tons of them. When I see you contemplating a super expensive domain I cringe. I have made some larger purchases and have learned over time that if you keep thinking there are very often derivative names that can work really well, and not break the bank, along the lines of the bepeers option. But good luck with this. Amd with respect to this statement,
"What if we all do what’s easy and fun? Lean into our natural talents? Have the self-awareness to know what we’re good at and not so good at so we can stop chasing those things. People fall into flow when they fall into who they already are. Resist the gravitational pull of society that leads you astray."
I so agree with this, but it does go back to the fail fast advice, because I think there is no way to find out what we're really good at and really love without a good deal of experimentation.

What a detailed read, Leo. I cannot believe that you are headed out to Tokyo so soon. The months fly by faster when I travel vicariously with you!
Great article Leo! Really looking forward to seeing you build this business!!
I did a ninja class in Kyoto which was really fun and I'd highly recommend the tuna auction in Tokyo even though you will have to get there for 3am.
A ninja class! 😆 I will have to see. Thank you for the recs Mak 🙏
