Description
Kamal Ravikant is an investor and writer. Do you love yourself? Do you even like yourself? The body and mind you inhabit is the only one you're going to get in this life. That means there is no greater priority than learning to love yourself and work collaboratively, instead of adversarially with your inner being.
