Not wet blanket positive feelings. You need to recognize the difference between positive feelings and hubris. I’m all for being excited about our team. I’m very excited.

I root for my team, they aren’t my self identity, they speak to nothing about any of that. It is way more that the converse is true and that people who puff their chests prematurely at the slightest whiff of success screams small dik energy.
