The higher you climb, the stronger the wind. Keep your footing simple.

RESILIENCE

WHAT THIS MEANS

Exposure rises with position. More people can see you, more of what you do gets interpreted, and mistakes that were private lower down become public higher up. The pressure is not a sign you are doing it wrong, it is what the altitude costs.

As things grow, make your habits plainer rather than more elaborate. Keep the sleep, the few people you trust and the routine that steadies you, and add nothing complicated. Simple footing is what lets you stand where the wind is stronger.
