if i succeed in stuff one day like i really want to write a lot more and instill more of this underlying sense of personal confidence is what most founders should be working towards rather than like yc advice because if you are confident enough in yourself and again you need to act like i think the thing is that you still need to actually have good ideas and you need to be smart but like if that's where you're at i i have no advice to give you that's that's your fucking problem but assuming you meet you know the the bare you know bar minimum requirements um

you should be maximizing to just believe in yourself having good ideas, essentially. And if you have that, you don't need to follow advice from Y Combinator or whatever I'm saying to you as a startup or anything like that because you believe in yourself.

And I think there's a difference between arrogance and confidence in a sense, although I think it's only arrogance in hindsight is something I believe in for sure. I think a lot of people probably think I'm arrogant, but I think that's only... You know, until I succeed, I suppose, then it's viewed as, you know, confidence. I would not be bothered by those perceptions, though, if I was someone.

I think your VC funding should be spent on trips to Ibiza or something. Not seriously, you know, but I think a lot of people should be focusing a lot more on their personal life outside of their work because it ultimately actually ends up improving their work life actually quite significantly.

This is also a much more strong point I'm trying to hit home for, I think, probably more so younger founders. Again, I'm 22. You know, when I started working on this project, I think I'd only recently turned 21. This is the first time I've even, you know, lived in my own real place outside of home.

And like, you know, I'm basically still a young, you know, and you're also weird if you're in tech, like I'm, You know, I think you just I've grown so much from my own personal confidence and my own, you know, sense of self. And I think that's because I've spent so much time not necessarily working, although you are kind of working, maybe if you view it that way to just.
