Do you think that the market rewards people who are seen as have paid their dues?
I think those of us who have come onto the other side after a dip or misfortune are the ones who seem to be the best at what they do. For example, I don’t just listen to your words, I listen to your tone, I observe your body movements, your eyes, and facial expressions. I interpret your silence and I hear everything that you don’t say, and all these skills are learned behaviour. Whether you or I can turn this skillset into a revenue stream is a whole other question.
