The Risk Of Being 'Wrong And Alone'
This is a nice framework (thanks to Super LP) for a lot of situations in life, including fashion, music, arts, investing, entrepreneurship, politics, careers, etc.
It states that we are generally more likely to be dismissed for being wrong and alone than for being wrong and in company. It also states that being right and alone is where you want to be (if you want to create anything original or of value). Food for thought!
