One single observation can invalidate a general statement derived from millennia of confirmatory sightings of millions of white swans. All you need is one single black bird.

Decided to move back to Europe recently. Before I leave, any suggestions for what I should do during my last couple of months here? Or if anyone wants to meet up, let me know

Thank you Andrew for speaking at our club! So many students at Cornell want to become entrepreneurs, and your talk really helped our masters and MBA students learn more about the journey.

Looking forward to hosting more guests at the Cornell Tech campus! 🐻

Yesterday I spoke to Cornell Tech master’s students about careers, personal brands, startups, and investing.

When I talk with students, the questions always go back to the same themes:

• How do you get started?
• How do you stand out?
• How do you avoid getting stuck?

I told them 3 things:

1. The fastest way to open doors is to give first.

Not in a vague way, but in the specific sense of solving a problem for someone. Even if you’re looking for a job, start by asking what they need - then find ways to help them solve their problem.

2. The gap between people who end up doing great work and people who feel trapped is usually one variable. Risk.

The successful ones took more swings. Not because they were smarter, but because they kept trying. You only get a handful of real shots in your life. Everything meaningful takes 5–10 years, so you get six or eight if you’re lucky. Use them.

3. This is an unusually great time to build things.

The tools are better than anything previous generations had. You can put an app in the world in minutes. You can reach millions from your phone. If you want to tilt your life onto a different track, this is the time to do it.

Thank you to Cornell Tech for having me!
