A short reflective monologue by Cameron Herold encouraging business leaders (especially early in their careers) not to take themselves too seriously. He emphasizes enjoying the journey, laughing more, balancing focus/work with fun, and suggests that a lighter attitude would have increased his enjoyment, success, and the positive energy that attracts collaborators.

Something I wish someone had told me when I was just getting started in business was to not take myself so effing seriously. I just didn't have as much fun as I could along the way. I still don't. I still don't laugh as much as I could. I still take myself too seriously, stay too focused, work too hard, and maybe just to enjoy the journey along the way. I think I would have had more fun, been more successful, and probably thrown off more great energy that would have attracted more people to work with me and help me out.
