Most 10xers aren't constantly 10x. You might have a 10x year and then a 1.1x year.

With tech it's a bit of a catch 22, most engineers really become effective after 18 to 24 months. At this point you know how to really get things done in your org.

But after 2 years you can job hop and make significantly more, so your interest might not align 100% with the company's

This. I'll make a product for someone in a few weekends, working 18 hours a day for a few weeks straight,

Then I won't have the energy for a few months.

Probably evens out to an employer, but imo you do better when the snowball is rolling longer without breaks.

That's the secret to 10x. ADHD and don't stop. Stopping is the enemy, you can't see the forest.

I hear regulation is nice, but tell my mind that.

Been at my employer for 10 years making cool shit if that matters.

You think it's rough being 10. Trying being 10,000x.

Sleep deprivation is the limit. Whatever multiplier you are, you're capped by that.
