/love it or quit

If this all works out, let the record show that one of the things we did right1 was this:

“How much should I work?”

  • You should take 100% care of yourself and the relationships that matter to you.
  • The rest of the time, if you don’t want to be working, consider it a signal that you need to play.
  • If the play doesn’t actually feel like it’s recharging your ambition to do great work, you should either figure out a different role for yourself—one that you will be excited about doing greatly—or quit2.

If it doesn’t appeal to you, we understand and will continue holding out for the person it does appeal to.

You need to care.
