The definitive list of startup pivots Details behind 30+ pivots, including how they knew it was time to pivot, how long it took them to pivot, how they found their new idea, and more
“We’ve got to be excited about the future.” ~ Elon Musk
You’ll learn far more by trying something than you will thinking about it.
Sometimes you get what you want. Other times you get a lesson you need. It’s a win either way.
“People think focus means saying yes to the thing you've got to focus on. But that's not what it means at all. It means saying no to the hundred other good ideas that there are.” — Steve Jobs
I always tell people to follow their curiosity; maybe this is because I stayed up into the night in high school reading Brazilian Fintech 10k’s… The curiosity continues at Stripe Sessions 🤠
Not enough people take this seriously
if you don't know how to solve a problem, start by solving a lesser version of it
AI will magnify the already great difference in knowledge between the people who are eager to learn and those who aren't.
The gap between saying you'll do something for somebody and actually doing it is everything.
working theory: the best lessons come from people in completely different fields, whose work at first seems irrelevant to yours — not from people in the same field and just a few steps ahead on the same path.
Surround yourself with people who have: 1. High Expectations: They see you for your full potential. They are willing to hold you to that standard. 2. High Support: They provide the love and tangible support to help you meet those high expectations. The combination is powerful.

Think in years, work in days, live in the moment.
Best thing I've read in a long, long time. Never stopped nodding. Good stuff, @sama.
Picked this up finally today - will share the daily lessons as they hit This one definitely did
Immensely proud of the work and team to make this all possible :') In times like this I like to think about an old Steve Jobs quote: “...if you do something and it turns out pretty good, then you should go do something else wonderful, not dwell on it for too long. Just figure…
One of the greatest benefits of improving your listening skills is that you start paying much greater attention to the content, meaning, and relevance of what someone is saying and you start tuning out the other fluff that tends to entice & distract everyone else, such as the…
It's not the lack of intelligence, it's the lack of focus that is stopping you.
“If I waited until I felt like it I wouldn’t do 90% of what I’ve done in my life.” - Tony Robbins
