    You’re Wasting Your Life And You Don’t Even Know It (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone

    Read excerpt

    One of the weird things about finding yourself with more free time is that you suddenly have time to think.A lot of time.Since leaving Big Tech, I’ve had more opportunity to look back at how I’ve spent my life. And one thought keeps coming back to me:Holy crap, I wasted a lot of time.Not necessarily doing anything obviously stupid.I worked hard. I built a career. I made money. I raised kids.
