In cycling, you want to have a tire that has as low of rolling resistance as possible…basically you want it to not stick to the ground too much.

You also want it to stick enough that it keeps you upright through corners and bumps.

I’ve realized an added rolling resistance in my own life is my need for others to give affirmation or validate my efforts, work, time, energy put in…

I need some of that just as who I am but how much of that need is just added grip holding me back?
