A lot of genuinely smart people don’t walk around thinking, I’m intelligent. In fact, some of the sharpest people I’ve met tend to underestimate themselves. They’re not always the loudest person in the room. They’re not always the most impressive on paper, either. They might not have the fanciest job title, the highest grades, or ...

I waited three years to start writing. Not because I didn’t want to. I wanted to desperately. I had ideas. I had things to say.

I want to tell this story honestly, which means telling it without the version that sounds good at dinner parties. The dinner party version goes like this: I moved to Saigon, met amazing people, built a life, found my tribe. It’s clean. It’s uplifting. And it’s not really what happened.

I’ve always been suspicious of the idea that smart people make better decisions. Not because I think intelligence is useless, but because I’ve spent enough time around very intelligent people to notice something uncomfortable: they don’t make fewer bad decisions. They just make bad decisions that sound more convincing. I first noticed this pattern in ... Read more Read more ›
