“be the very person who I became so proud of. It’s all well and good to have success and reach a certain level, but I really don’t give a fuck what you did yesterday. Maybe you finished Ultraman or graduated from Harvard. I do not care.

― Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, Good Business: Leadership, Flow, and the Making of Meaning
