    Two major trends propelled gaming forward, IMO: - Online multiplayer - Twitch, YouTube, etc. introducing live-streaming and montages.

    Love that Mary Meeker's '17 internet trends report highlights gaming and esports. Big believer in gamification for training and education.

    The group to pay attention to isn't "bragging" about it. They're heads down, or in the gym alone. That's why they're winning.

    I promise you...your competition isn't beating you because they are working more hours than you. It's because they are working smarter.

    Not hanging with friends and family because you're working isn't "cool." Burning out isn't "cool."

    When I first got into tech. I thought it was "cool" to work on the weekends or holidays. I quickly realized that's a recipe for disaster.

    Life is way too short to not prioritize family, friends, and helping others. We are all just humans.
