I'm a very intuitive person. I like to trust my intuition on big directions, like, you know, what's going to happen, you know. In the long run. But meanwhile, I'm quite conservative that I hate to predict things. So I think when people replay this episode, they will hear probably I got really tricked by some of your questions.

predictions is that I don't like to make predicts. Like what happens if this happens, if that happens, what do you think? Like, I think when I manage my team, I tell people like, we make decisions based on current fact and we find the best solutions to it. If you spend too much time, at least if I spend too much time thinking about what if Apple knocks on your door, what are you going to do?

If B is a solution to A, when A happens, you just do B. But there are other type of people, they're like, hold on, have you ever thought of when A happens, then D happens, then E happens, then F happens, are you still going to do B? If you think in that way, probably not, right? So I just choose not to predict a lot of what-ifs, and I make short predictions.

clear, concise decisions based on current fact. And in fact, if you do the recap for what were launched back in the CES, it was probably the best timing. The price is probably just right. The color probably just right, right? And the decisions of not negotiating, spend six months negotiating with T-Mobile is probably just right. You know, like... I make current decisions and that's my style.

And I really don't like some of the other type of startups that they kind of like spend too much time enjoying the feeling if you understand what I'm indicating. But there are a lot of people that they say, oh, I'm a founder. I'm cool. You know, like No, I've grown enough to get rid of that. Probably the same way as if I'm 21, 22, but now I'm like 34. Startups is really tough. It's a war.
