Whew what a powerful essay Chris!

Love the analogy of Bees dancing. I also struggle with niching down.

It's why I called my newsletter Idea & Execution.

Similar to the explore & exploit movements of bees, idea & execution discovers ideas and explains how to execute on them.

Chris! You nailed exactly why I found my past newsletter niche (for founders) so dry. I'd been exploiting for 20 years...that field. And just writing more about it felt souless...even though I really believe in helping other founders. Thank you for this huge insight !!!!
