Sleepless Nights is one of those books that’s so good I can hardly stand it.

Your loser theory has a great deal in common with the Discordian-slash-GenX theory of “slack,” but I prefer your emphasis on excellence. I’ve been following a loser strategy my whole life, and I’m pretty darn content at this point.

Incidentally there *is* a plumber here on Substack who writes really good essays. I think he may have joined after you wrote this.
