Original Advice

DONT: Don't ghost people while you grind; check in.

Grind Relentlessly, Don't Go Silent

Your grind is not an alibi. Disappearing doesn't make you disciplined; it makes you unreliable. It reads as selfish. Silence builds myths you can't control: Are you bored, angry, done? People who cheer for you aren't vending machines you return to when the launch hits. Work is a fortress you built; fine. But if no signal comes from inside, everyone assumes it's empty.

Relationships are part of the build, not a break from it. A 20-second check-in keeps doors unlocked, calendars flexible, and loyalty warm. Your stamina shines brighter when people know where you are. Consistency is currency; clarity is collateral. Send the ping, schedule the call, surface before midnight. You don't owe essays. You owe a breadcrumb that says: still here.
