How I Invest with David Weisburd · E406: Why AI Won't Transform Most Enterprises for 10 Years · 22 Jul 2026 podcast

Like, how do you deal with a client meeting or something like that?

There probably is some set of best practices for things, but I generally agree with them.

Have more confidence in yourself.

Like I think the thing that I find that especially young founders do is that you think that you've hired these leaders, they have more experience than you in something, so maybe they know something you don't and your gut feels off about something.

You probably might be right because you just have so much more context on your business and your market and your end state that like you should trust your own gut instinct more than you do.

And I think that sometimes you feel like, do I know what I'm talking?

It's like you probably have a good sense on what's right.

And I think enough founders, they don't trust their gut instincts when something feels wrong.

They need to listen to that gut instinct more and be like, yeah, this is clearly not good enough.

I'm going to push the boundary.

There's a balance where you have to be a truth seeker and understand what's actually happening.

But if you have the right piece of information and you're not deluding yourself, trust your opinion more.

There's a reason you started this company and you got it here.

You were right more often than wrong if you got it to a certain scale.

The best thing that I do for myself is rather than any one person is I play devil's advocate with myself.

And I'm like, what if the opposite was true?

And I aggressively counter my own opinion and try to like play devil's advocate with the other argument.

And if I find that the devil's advocate perspective doesn't convince me that that's how I try to run it and run it.
