I have this sort of sense that you shouldn’t really be able to cleanly articulate what you do to anybody.
Like if someone asks what you do and you say “radiologist” or “lawyer”that it’s somehow a bad thing or at least not optimal.
I’ve felt this for a long time now, but I usually don’t say it because it’s so counter to common culture and I also think the people who know what I mean already get it and the people who don’t, don’t.
But to detail it, It’s something like the world is moving really fast and changing very rapidly and in order to be taking advantage of that you want to be doing the job which has no name and which couldn’t even have been conceived of 10-15 years ago.
Something that is only presently possible, but still not well enough understood to be classified. It’s not legible to outsiders and so it’s harder to explain yourself, harder to credential yourself or to raise money, but that friction is the moat.
That’s sort of the sweet spot for growth maximization.
To me anyway.
