Check your ego but not your confidence. Remember who you are.

The scariest seed founders aren’t loud.

They’re:

-Calm
-Deeply obsessed
-Already dissatisfied with the version you’re seeing

They don’t pitch inevitability. They build toward it. And they move faster than you expect.

This is the first poem that appears in my new book, Above Ground. I’ve been thinking a lot about the simultaneity of the human experience. How joy sits alongside sorrow. How wonder sits alongside despair. How we carry all of it all at once.

You can grind, hustle, and push until you're blue in the face.

But you won't be in this game for long if you can't enjoy yourself.

Never make yourself small, to make yourself relatable.
- Self-deprecating humor
- Acting dumber than you are
- Minimizing what you do

The world could use a few models of people who feel comfortable in their own skin, and are okay being smart genuinely good people.

First mover advantage only exists when products take years to build and it's the biggest business moat.

Times have changed and most products can be easily copied but the marketing channels cannot be.

This is why distribution channels are the biggest moat for startups today.

Startup founders are usually generalists.

Good at lots of things, great at nothing.

@theandreboso Google -> here are a thousand links with every source
ChatGPT -> here’s a consolidated analysis of a thousand sources

My guess is Google will begin to display more structured snippets and analyses.

I do not fear failure. I fear spending many long years pursuing something that never mattered.
