Google, Microsoft, Adobe, IBM, Palo Alto Networks, and now Twitter run by CEOs who grew up in India. Wonderful to watch the amazing success of Indians in the technology world and a good reminder of the opportunity America offers to immigrants. 🇮🇳🇺🇸 (Congrats, @paraga!)

Startups move at 1000 miles per hour while public companies move at 10 miles per hour. This is your biggest competitive advantage. – at San Mateo, CA

It’s ok to go from “I love my startup!” to “I don’t think I can do this” to “we are changing the world!” to “do I have the strength for these hurdles?” all in one day. Much like being a parent, it doesn’t make you a bad founder to have doubts about yourself or your mission.
