I actually think every individual is now an entrepreneur, whether they recognize it or not.

Innovation comes from long-term thinking and iterative execution.

The future is sooner and stranger than you think.

A product needs to be sufficiently innovative to distinguish itself from the pack, but not so forward thinking as to alienate the user.

The challenge when you think about product distribution is: how are you competing for potential customers or potential members time.

When I'm raising money, this fundraising, I'm thinking about the next fundraising. I'm thinking how I'm set up for it.

When you think about being contrarian, you have to think about - how is it that smart people will disagree with me, disagree with me ...from a position of intelligence, and there is something that I know that they don't know, that will actually in fact play out to be true.

You should have an investment thesis that essentially says why you think this is potentially a good idea.

Part of what being a great founder is, is being both able to hold the belief, to think about what it is you want to be doing and where... you want to be going, but also be smart enough that you're essentially listening to criticism, negative feedback, competitive entries.
