Your choice of heroes is the most important decision you’ll ever make. Why? Because Napoleon spent his entire life trying to be Caesar. Caesar idolized Alexander the Great, and Alexander imagined himself as the next Achilles. Who you idolize in that extent?

The fastest way to lose respect as a founder is to move slow. Over the last 3.5 years, we’ve spoken to 1,000+ founders. We're asking for an update every month and hearing the exact same bs. The product is in progress. Going live “next week.” Testing few more things out. The worst guys are the young CEOs, three years into a startup, with nothing shipped and zero progress.

Keeping an excel with all those guys and i'm publishing it in 3 years from now. It's my guilty pleasure.

What if the Greek Prime Minister crashed our party??? @kmitsotakis Over 300 Greeks gathered in the city. So we threw an afterparty for them at a terrace overlooking the SF skyline. Hosted by @Christos_antono on his hacker house. A lot is happening. And it feels like this is just the beginning.

if environment is so all-powerful, then how can the worst imaginable environment produce wonderful human beings and outstanding scientists and how can the best type of environment that oceans of money can buy and the top brains in education conceive, produce so vast a number of nonentities, with perhaps a few reasonable scientists sprinkled among them?

Reading the hardest book I’ve ever touched. It’s completely changing how I think about genius, the brain, and creativity. And it’s all research-backed. Cool insights below.

Child prodigies and exceptionally early achievers, seem able to curtail this prodigious expenditure of mental energy; Mozart, Newton, or Einstein, by combining outstandingly high IQ, special abilities, motivation and creativity may get by with less and achieve outstanding success at an abnormally young age. this combo is extremely rare tho.

The deviation of gifted children from the generality is in the upward direction for nearly all traits. there is no law of compensation whereby the intellectual superiority of the gifted is offset by inferiorities along non-intellectual lines.

Reputation and trust are infinite games. There’s no final win. You build trust through repeated actions and consistency. Reputation compounds too. Both can collapse quickly if you optimize for one short-term outcome.

Btw, as long as you are in the game, you're a winner. The moment you exit the game, you just lost.

Legendary run from a goated duo.💯
Two years ago, @fal became our vendor. Today, they’ve acquired @lucent_chat. @dimi_is_on_x and I built an agent that turned campaign ideas into finished ads using 60+ models. Within a month: 16,000 creators, 75,000+ assets. Our biggest lesson: the value compounds around the models - in context, memory, and understanding creative intent. Now we’re joining @fal to push that further. From prompting to directing. Thank you @join_ef for backing us early, our advisors Mike Berry and @shyamalanadkat for their guidance, and @burkaygur and @gorkem for believing in what comes next.

Planing to host 10 people in a 2bedroom apartment for batches of 2 weeks each. We're in SF, anything is possible. How many builders can live in a 2 bedroom hackerhouse?

I feel like I’m falling behind. I feel that I’m so bad and I need to do more.

Sundays in SF: 12k uphill date-run 2 hours in the church MoMA with 4 friends stake-sandwiches 3 hours work at the office dinner with 10x engineers What a life.

there are rooms you don't know exist.

sample size. sample size. sample size.

Pattern matching in SF with over 300 founders leads to this. The most exceptional people i've met: 1. Feel like they could always do better 2. Stress so much of falling behind 3. Always feel that things aren't going good enough.

I mean, I get the upside of it but there's so much noise right now on the web. Either be unique or don't do it at all
