Rizz = magnetic leadership. Tizz = neurodivergent superpower. Together, they’re the rare combo behind the founders who actually bend reality. I finally wrote about the framework we use at Long Journey to explain why we fall in love with certain founders:

When people ask what we look for in founders at Long Journey, I have a simple answer: Rizz and Tizz. Yes, it’s exactly what it sounds like (charisma and autism, for the uninitiated), but trust me...

So friggin good.
A lot of people build startups to win the lottery instead of building the thing they'd build if they’d already won. The companies I'm most drawn to are ones that founders build as machines to do the stuff they want to do with other people who do, too. https://t.co/43rAdemSDy

Interesting to hear it proudly stated that the most valuable company on Earth “doesn’t have a long-term plan.” Almost a perfect mascot for Why Greatness Cannot Be Planned.
