Amazing story, thanks for sharing. I recently published a 5-parts series oh Nona Jone’s ‘Killing Comparison’ on my blog - https://ulrich.bearblog.dev/mind - I refer to it whenever I start looking at other people’s races in a wrong way, to remind myself of the message you shared here.

What a powerful story and inspiring interpretation! Often times, we fall into the trap of FOMO that derails our own paths to our own goals. This story reminds me that being true to oneself, being laser focused on one's own goals (North Star), and being diligent are critically important in life.

I haven't been reading newsletters recently as I have been tackling a lot of stuff around personal life, work, etc. I am glad I made it a point to read this piece by Deb Liu.
