@shreyas ROI optimization and minimizing Opportunity Cost seem very similar to me. Is the difference to you that ROI optimization focuses on choosing the "best" project, while Opportunity Cost focuses on not missing potential new opportunities?
Rereading books is fun because lines hit differently as you change.
How you bookmark a book on one read shows who you were then.

1. Market size matters.
If you can focus your effort & passion on a related business you're 85-90% as passionate about with a 10x larger market, do that.
2. Hire earlier than you think.

@TeamGaryVee@garyvee@ApplePodcasts 3. You'll never trick the market over the long term.
This is why 95% of NFTs are going to fail - they're just get rich quick schemes.
4. Brand is a form of capital you can't see.
That doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

(1) the fundamental question you're trying to answer
(2) why answering that question is important to you

(1) How do you control your emotions, your body, and your opponent's body (in that order) in a confrontational situation?
(2) Folding people like laundry is kind of cool.
