Stoicism for solopreneurs

The shit-smeared imaginary mirror of improvement

Having a baby is an invisible mirror
They copy you
Even when you’re not watching
So you have to be your best all the time
Even when you think you are alone
Not just in behaviour but in deeds and mindset
We all make little exceptions and self justify lazy or poor behaviour

Now I can imagine Fin watching and think
“What’s the best thing here…what would I want Fin to do?”

He’ll learn what to do from what I do
So I have to be that better version of myself, even when no-one is watching.
