- Keep your [[Identity]] small.

- Your job isn't to enforce your vision of the world upon everyone. Live your own life the way you want to live it and let other people live their own lives the way they want to live them. [Don't yell at people who are trying to go off and do their own thing quietly with a group of voluntarily consenting friends](https://slatestarcodex.com/2014/06/07/archipelago-and-atomic-communitarianism). Don't criticize some group of people doing their own thing without harming anyone or try to browbeat them into doing the same thing as everyone else. That group might be just a tiny bit of [[slack]] away from creating something amazing!

- [When you learn an interesting idea, or read an article, it takes 0 effort to think through friends who might enjoy it, and pass it on](https://www.neelnanda.io/blog/mini-blog-post-10-seek-positive-externalities). This applies all the more so to bigger things - jobs worth applying to, other people they should talk to, etc. Receiving opportunities has (essentially) 0 downsides on their end.
