Chris explains that to evolve, you often have to leave your old life and friends behind, creating a painful gap where you no longer fit in but haven't yet found your new tribe. He argues that this isolation isn't a mistake—it's a necessary feature of transformation. The conversation deepens with a breakdown of Jeff Bezos’s final shareholder letter and the concept of entropy. Chris explains that the universe wants you to be "average" and that staying unique requires a massive "biological budget" of energy. To survive this, they discuss why you should limit your 2026 resolutions to just two big things and how to use negative emotions—like spite or insecurity—as "rocket fuel" to reach escape velocity before switching to healthier motivations.
