Long term thinking is so rare anywhere, but especially in startups. This is a huge advantage if you do it.

I think as a rough estimate, you should aim to give about 10% of the company to the first 10 employees.

It takes years and years, usually a decade, to create a great startup.

No growth hack, brilliant marketing idea, or sales team can save you long term if you don't have a sufficiently good product.

I believe in fighting with investors to reduce the amount of equity they get and then being as generous as you possibly can with employees.

Great execution is at least 10 times more important and a 100 times harder than a good idea.

Most of the best hires that I've made in my entire life have never done that thing before.
