Evidence of exceptional ability and asking how they solved hard problems down to the brass tacks level is what matters.
Those who actually deserve credit know the details of the solution, because it was so hard it got seared into their brain. The phonies and posers who falsely claim credit will flounder at the second or third level of detail.
If you get the world when you’re born then what’s the point? Nothing you do will matter. Do you still get the same highs as someone who was born with nothing?
When someone finally says yes or when something really “lucky” happens that dopamine rush feels so fucking infatuating. There’s nothing that can beat it. Keep dialling. Talk to that stranger. Message that girl and god will eventually reward you.
