integral and important at that level like i think being an extremely positive person that's constantly optimistic is what has gotten me to where i am today i think the worst thing you can do is think like oh like the world is unfair um why did this happen to me stop thinking that way like everyone is born with advantages and disadvantages you kind of just have to take what you have and go forwards and if you face rejection um just learn from it and immediately like go and fix
When I first started out before I had any money, I was like couch surfing all the time, but I like didn't have anything to pair with.
Like I actually love couch surfing.
It was fun.
You get to meet a lot of people.
Like I found couches extremely comfy.
It was like to the point where I had an apartment, I had a bed and I would sleep on the couch.
So like that was like nothing but like any stresses of money like went away.
Right.
But I also think that like what it can cause is you become a little bit too comfortable, which isn't great.
I think the people at the top are actually not the smartest people in the world at all.
I think that they lack frameworks.
And because they lack frameworks, they don't understand a concept of like how the world works, which is actually very good because startups are built when you break frameworks because you innovate, right?
Which is why when you take someone in an industry that's been in industry for decades and hire them in, oftentimes like they don't innovate because they're like, things have to be done this way because things have always been done this way.
And again, Airbnb, Uber, great examples of this.
They weren't transport experts.
They weren't real estate experts.
So they didn't have a framework of like how things are supposed to be.
I think the people at the top completely lack frameworks because they didn't have decades of experience.
And because of that, they were able to innovate, but also they tell their employees, like their employees might be like, that's impossible.
