In my late 40s, I sold GMM in a landmark buyout and stepped away last year after turning 50. I decided to upload the sprawling, disorganized document into ChatGPT and ask it to find blind spots in my youthful worldview. The experiment allowed me to reflect on the hunger and ambition I had and the challenges I faced in my 20s. Today I'm confident in my judgment, but I am mindful to not be judgmental. Close relationships with family and friends, says Ravin Gandhi, are "by far the most important thing we all have."
