We all are in one way or another, professionally and/or privately, building community. These are 23 learnings to keep in mind and take inspiration from. My favourite ones:

• Community is a thousand one-on-ones, not one big warm room.
• Your first 100 people are the community’s energetic constitution.
• Friendship is a byproduct of shared pursuit, never a goal in itself.
• What you celebrate becomes what you are: choose with extraordinary care.
