📖 Jesus often went off to pray — if he needed it, so do you
💧 Having time to pause and pray is so replenishing
🎁 My wife is usually encouraging it — she sees the difference

You'll feel a little guilty for taking a whole day by yourself and you'll try to talk yourself out of it because:
• there's so much to do
• people need you
• it's not the right time

• it seems self-indulgent

1/If you owned growth stocks this year - like we did at Altimeter - you got your face ripped off. As a hedge fund we expect to lose less than the indexes on the way down - this year we have lost more. Our Big 4 - Snow, Meta, MSFT, and Uber are all down big. #keepingitreal
2/ Despite concerns about valuations - we didn’t hedge enough. We expected a gradual reversion to avg multiple as rates normalized, but we didn’t forsee a war in Ukraine or fears about hyperinflation /runaway rates. Markets moved fast- we moved too slow. cnbc.com/video/2021/10/…
