During the past 15 days, I have had many people around me contract COVID-19. Folks in multiple parts of the US, Europe, and Brazil.
Fortunately, all were vaccinated and no severe cases, although I have observed two cases of “long-covid”, which does seem a bit scary, especially given the brain fog that many talks about.
I was looking at the numbers this morning and was surprised that yesterday we had over 100,000 registered infections in the US.
A similar number that 12 months ago would have been extremely alarming.
Like many diseases, we have finally adapted and learned how to live with yet another challenge.
Human resilience is fantastic. I am thankful for the fact that I have not caught anything, despite traveling extensively.
Have a blessed weekend.
In this episode, we discussed gun rights, the current private market landscape for startups, the great resignation, and much more.
Having strong opinions is important. It will make people listen to you. Holding them weakly and adapting demonstrates character and humility.
During most of 2017, I averaged 5–6 hours a night. Not sleeping enough was killing me and my ability to get things done.
