If you actually thought you're better than the person who's interviewing you, it shows. That's a challenging starting point. Right. You know, when you have a chip on your shoulder, that's not a good thing.
Depending on what job you want. As a venture capitalist, yes. Or as an entrepreneur, perhaps. But if you're applying for engineer's job, you know, you want a job for at the time. I was lucky enough to have a mentor who taught me everything and who I can actually go back to saying, how should I look at this? What should I do? I was mentored.

Not only one, a couple of them told me what to do and share the life experiences and the collaboration, the trial and error. And if I made a mistake and I was forgiven and continue to be on that journey to do better. So taught me how to make constant improvement every single time. When you look back, your last minute, last day, last hour. So these are lifelong lessons.

And I was taught about how you are going to figure out some ways to know that every day is a good day. And when you are looking at your daily life, you'll complain about how boring and mundane it is. But that's how life is. Not every day is a home run day. Not every day is exciting. Most of the days are kind of boring.

But if we believe in competitive world, every day, you know, everybody's day is similar. My mentor was a champion in bridge. He's the smartest guy in the world in my dictionary. So all of the bridge hands are played by all the competitive teams, except that sequentially probably is different. You play this deck first and the other guy follow that. But all the hands are played fairly and squarely.

That's just like life. You might be born something as somebody who's great in the very beginning from a family with resources. And then you're going to go through your challenges. Don't worry, those challenges will come for you. And if you have early challenges and your homeland days, your great days will come after. You know, all these things, they're just sequentially different.

But as long as you treat every day as your last day, every day as the day that you wanted to do better, and you'll win. How do you think about the balance between skill versus luck? Hard to answer that question because in a different stage of life, it's different. The answers ought to be different. In a way, luck is always the most important thing. I'm a fatalist, and I believe in fate.

You know, there's no one answer to that.
