    Cosmic Insignificance Therapy for Overwhelmed Foundersのベスト引用

    “

    Embracing our cosmic insignificance isn't depressing—it's the ultimate permission slip to focus on what actually matters to us. When you realize your worth isn't tied to quarterly results, you can focus on leading well and building something that lasts.
