I don't normally post business or tech stuff here but, hey, this is brilliant:

"I need to be really clear: pushing through the Dip and becoming the best in the world at what you do is in fact the key to success. But (and it's a big but), if you're required to become someone you're not, or required to mutate your brand into one that's ultimately a failure in order to do so, you're way better off quitting instead."
