  3. "If you look at the evidence, people who are okay being disagreeable or disagreeable on the ocean scale, meaning that they're not trying to make sure everybody's happy, they're okay if people are upset with them, are far more likely to be successful in a hyper successful way than people who need everybody around them to be happy."
