Great companies start because the founders want to change the world... not make a fast buck.

Look back to the old days: people bought an MS DOS machine and struggled with it for weeks to bring it up to speed. Then Apple created Macintosh, struggled a bit with it, but eventually succeeded. Then it went into other businesses. If your company truly wants to change the world, it would make these problems go away for customers.

It's a very valuable skill to succeed in life whether you work for a startup or a Fortune 500 company.

When you're a good person, good things happen to you. You shouldn't be a good person with the expectation of therefore deserving good things, but in its purest form, I believe when you do good, good comes back to you.

You have to start with the basic premise that you need to know what your competition is doing.

The companies that are successful, they start out to make meaning, not to make money.
