    If you're starting a meditation company right now, you're probably too late. Calm was started in 2012. When explained the concept to me back then I thought he was crazy. Build companies that make people think you're crazy in 2020. We don't need more meditation apps.

    Let’s be clear - if I allow you to invest in my company I’m giving you an opportunity, not asking for a handout. It’s ridiculous now investors often confuse their investment as a “favor” or “impact” or “diversity” play. FOH.

    One exercise I’d like us all to try to do more of is think about yesterday’s accomplishments big & small, & accept them as wins today. What have you done in the last 24 hours that you’re proud of? I helped several people connect to resources yesterday. I also got out of bed.

    This is Kobe’s legacy. Outwork everyone. Want it more than anyone. And inspire those around him to do the same

    “It’s the one thing you can control. You are responsible for how people remember you—or don’t. So don’t take it lightly.” —Kobe (what a legend)😢

    Failing well is far more important than a good sales pitch, the fancy degree, or having the right funding in place. Every successful business is built on a long string of failures that the entrepreneur has managed to overcome.

    11) This change in mental models now affects all founders coming up beyond seed. A new focus on profitability is going to separate the winners from the losers in this next few years. Thriftier founders will win.

    I think it’s important to celebrate the good times, the highs and the wins as a founder. It’s hard as hell, but going to bed tonight energized, excited and knowing we have built something that our customers love.

    It’s a great time for customers to give feedback & tonight they couldn’t stop talking about how much they love what we are doing. It was wonderful to hear. Our team set a goal for sales on night 1 of the sale. We far exceeded that goal. So bringing in for the team tom.

    If you claim you made it you probably never made it, Bc ppl who made it never say that

    Subtlety on compliments: Normal people just say "Your company is doing so well" Founders say "From the outside it looks like your company is doing so well" 🤣 They aren't being backhanded, they're just trying to be accurate with their words because they live it.

    Was just reminded (h/t ) of my favorite VC rejection phrase “we’re rooting for you from the sidelines” Actually no. You’re in the bleachers. You’re watching on TV. The sidelines are reserved for the team, people who help the team, & people who pay a lot of money.

    Honestly, it might not all be worth it But you'd probably be a lot less alive if you weren't trying to build something great

    There’s been a lot said lately about “hustle porn” and I don’t want to step in that. But.... Please remember: You are more than your company. Don’t neglect your support team. Don’t neglect yourself. Ask for help 💗

    The lamest question in all of startup investing is: “who else is investing?”
