People are starting to really care about companies having heart. The mentality of maximizing growth at any cost will in fact no longer maximize growth. Customers and the community see through it. They want companies that do good in the world and do right by their team.

If you can't rest because you have: (full todo list, backlog of projects, desire to accomplish more, self/life/world aspects you want to change), you will never rest. These lists are infinite. So you must learn to rest peacefully beside an infinite mountain of potential work.

Welcome to the effects of Experience Rot.

As you add features, you’re adding complexity to the design, and decreasing the quality of the experience.

Websites these days, it's no wonder nobody uses them on mobile

I'd rather be by myself than rush into a relationship because I'm lonely.

I'd rather work by myself than rush into a business relationship because I need the money.

Life is too short and precious to spend it with people I don't absolutely love every second of being around.

Having a breakthrough means you need to break something—a limiting belief, habit, routine, creative rut, social norm, physical limitation, or idea held by society to be true. Challenge the status quo. Push boundaries. March to the beat of a different drum. Go break something!

1/ Many of the biggest implosions in recent history - especially ecommerce - have been due to startups getting addicted to paid marketing while fooling themselves on Customer Acqusition Costs. As spend scales, it always gets more expensive and harder to track - never less.

@maneesh sent you a Facebook msg about the Medellin opportunity.

Scientists warn that constant fear and anger are bad for our health, while being compassionate and warm-hearted contributes to our physical and mental well-being. Therefore, just as we observe physical hygiene to stay well, we need to cultivate a kind of emotional hygiene too.

When a CEO/founder says "culture is the most important thing", it's really hard to understand how true that is until you've been a CEO/founder.

Learning that culture is the most important thing is probably the most important lesson I've learned as a CEO.

Super grateful that I can get goosebumps from music. Music is everything. Music is love.
