“The Superior man thinks of virtue; the small man thinks of comfort. The superior man thinks of the sanctions of the law; the small man thinks of favors in which he may receive”
— Confucius, The Analects, Part 4
As you work on making progress towards your evolution you must find an agreement with yourself to operate out of virtue and sacrifice.
What via crux are you capable of going through and why?
Once you embrace it, you will connect to truth and acquire a different societal position.
Connecting with virtue prevents fear. Calm judgment is the basis of fearlessness.
Sacrifices are about executing your ideas to their fullest extension and being capable of surrendering to the process.
Risk without possession.
Love without conditions.
Act and be relentless.
I came to Minas Gerais for the wedding of Felipe Lamounier, a dear friend and founder that we have backed via Atman's most recent fund.
As an investor, CEO, founder, or leader you must persevere until exhaustion, with discipline and rational determination.
Most that have achieved enormous success did not conform. All great founders are well-mannered misfits. None of the founders we back are ordinary people.
