Literally every wannabe entrepreneur in the galaxy

"Instant" results in business are a myth concocted by fancy marketers and youtubers. Business growth is a long term game. Play the long term game. Outlast everyone else.

Sorry! Not a thing you can do if you're an entrepreneur

Airbnb owns no real estate. Uber owns no cars. Facebook creates no content. Amazon owns no stores. The biggest companies don’t create, they leverage.

Stop watching YouTube. Go create something.

Branding is a reputation building equation promise + successful delivery = good reputation And branding is fragile Warren Buffet said: "It takes 20 years to build a reputation and 5 minutes to ruin it. If you think about that, you'll do things differently."

Whatever you do, always do it at 100%. Unless you're donating blood 🩸

Elon was so close...

Only true creators will understand this: When asked what his favorite composition was, Duke Ellington said, “the next one.” This is the essence of the artistic process. When we’re in the liminal space between now and what is about to come, we’re fully alive.

The Catholic Church, Google, Amazon ... they're all master storytellers. They all command a specific storyline in a specific vertical. Storytelling can help you convince and influence people. But use that power for good because "with great power comes great responsibility."

Literally every entrepreneur after the age of 40

Since 2012, I learned that being an entrepreneur teaches you humbleness. Because your assumptions will be wrong ~90% of the time, unless you're aiming pretty low. Alan Kay said: "If you don’t fail at least 90 percent of the time, you're not aiming high enough."

Pablo Picasso lived more than 30,000 days. He created over 25,000 artworks between the age of 20 and his death at 91 years old. That means that he created something new, everyday for roughly 70 years. If you have talent, that's how you become the best at your craft.
