"Invested" in "inner work". Indie, maker, optimizer. Maybe it is just a different kinds of people thing but I think we shouldn't use business jargon language, with all the implicit values and associations that come along with it, to define, of all things, our fundamental mindset and relationship to ourselves. Don't frame yourself that way. Don't become another tool or asset to be burned up like so much VC cash in the making of something ultimately trivial. That language has a purpose but is not good for the soul. Sorry for the rant.


That's an interesting perspective, I simply didn't know how to describe it better, how would you express it, I'd love to know :)
