Complexity is often just a sophisticated way of procrastinating.
Most of us aren’t building a business; we’re building a shrine to someone else’s success. We use the templates and mimic the tone of creators years ahead of us, thinking it’s a bridge to freedom. It’s actually a cage made of "Stage 10" expectations.
Today, I’m sharing my "shattered face" moment—the two years I lost trying to scale complexity before I had mastered my craft. We’re talking about Identity Debt, the Mimicry Tax, and why the most expensive advice you can take is the kind that’s "free" but wrong for your stage.
