Agreed, but I think its not a great sentiment to make towards meditation when it can actually help startup founders. Recharging is key amidst all the chaos big

  Ah, maybe I misunderstood, I thought you were mainly concerned with knowing if it's right for you, but it seems you are mainly concerned that pg is wrong and shouldn't be telling people it's bad. Well, he does say > Maybe that's the right answer for some people. I have no idea. But it doesn't seem the optimal solution to me. I wouldn't have thought anyone could have a problem with his saying that. Since you ask on this page for critical viewpoints: It does seem you want him to be more "politically correct" here—saying what he thinks true isn't good enough, as it doesn't sufficiently strongly support the message you want him to give out. It probably not unrelated that one of the qualities I like best about pg's essays (particularly the older ones, and not on the subject of startups—I haven't read those) is his willingness to say what he believes, regardless of how it might seem to people. The courage of his convictions.

    I know it’s right for me because my mind is a almost too on edge that it doesn’t even let me sleep. I just question his thesis here, you’re correct. I do admire his candor as well
