You have to plan your chess moves out in advance. You have to really think before you act and build systems that were going to let you go sustainably faster.

In 6 months, if I'm telling you what to do, I've hired the wrong person.

When you build a growth team and you hire the right growth leader, they start asking all the right questions because when the archetype of person who is a growth PM will be like, 'Well, wait. Why is this happening? And let's get the data on X, Y and Z thing.'

AGI is just necessary but not sufficient. A lot of the value is still going to require a bunch of hustle from a lot of builders to really turn that new source of energy and channel it into something that we humans want to use.

We may not be right, but at least we're not confused.

You can't empathize with the summary. You have to be in the room fully immersed, no phones, just actually hearing the words and the intonation. That's how you're going to get the full color.

Say you're going to do the thing, say that you're doing the thing, and then say that you did it.

The data flywheel part is just, you can start with proprietary data, but the flywheel is really just sort of how do you continue to maintain that and generate that. And the second thing is, again, it's the workflow.

Think about one of the biggest mistakes you've made, truly, the more painful the better. And tell me what the mistake was... and tell me actually how you actually think differently now, work differently as a result.
