🤔 Iniciadores de Pensamiento
A lot of people think failure is the opposite of success.
How wrong they are.
Failure is part of success.
Many young ppl feel constrained by lack of big network, but IMO they're constrained by the value they can provide a network
They think they need to get coffee w/ X
IMO they need to develop a skill, expertise, asset so that when they get coffee w X/ they have something to offer
What a great thread.
30 somethings, what do you now believe that you didn’t fully realize in your 20s?
For me:
1. People are mostly thinking about themselves.
2. Good work, friends / family, and good health is all you need.
3. Being right isn’t always the most important thing.

Another contrarian view. Until series B, the idea that the health of the business can be determined by revenue metrics alone is flawed. Some days, I think the single most important metric during that time is actually employee turnover.
I took your comments on business writing, read the books you told me to read, and have summarized it all in two pages because no one has time to read all that. (This is to give my students.) First draft, suggestions welcome.

@hankgreen The entire brouhaha word grouping is far and away the best and I will hear no rebuttals: brouhaha, melee, fracas, dustup, donnybrook,, hubbub, ruckus, free-for-all, hullabaloo, hurly-burly.

The Twitter tech guy scoreboard:
- has a beard
- really into IPAs that were brewed locally
- runs a small SaaS business with a Stripe-like landing page
- reminds people that VC funding is not for everyone
- tries to tweet about philosophy
- thinks journalists are too critical
guys I am trying to use password 6gDV3cVm6wiuTLUNW6AH6 but it's "not complex enough"
so please kill me now
Being a startup founder is just resharing a slightly edited version of your blurb over and over again until you die
Muuuuucho mas tranquilo,
