You’re the goat when it’s free.
That’s when the applause is loud. That’s when the comments roll in. That’s when everybody suddenly sees the “vision.” But the moment you attach a number to your gift, the room gets quiet. The hype fades. The same people who called you different start asking if you can “just this one time” look out.
