At Arrows, we often say “Go where there’s demand.” Spend your time and energy where it’s wanted, and try to waste little when the battle is uphill.
Underrated life upgrade: Stop chasing people who aren’t genuinely interested in you. Friends, jobs, partners, etc. Go where you're asked questions, not just expected to give answers. Interest is effort. Effort takes energy. Energy shows respect.
