- doublesprout 15y agoEvery time someone makes a 'society thinks' post, I mentally replace those words with 'you think'. And then I make mental self-corrections. I didn't find much to correct for, though. You can't look for the opposite of narcissism to recognize leaders. And the startup community does a good job of encouraging alternative measures of skill.
