Does anyone else find it 10x better to walk when you're on a phone call, than sit still?.

Success in startups is directly proportional to the number of hard conversations you are willing to have.

There are very few investors that truly are 'all-in' on companies and founders. When you find them, you need to appreciate and celebrate them. I'm lucky to have a few of these rare gems @CollectiveFin, but the MVP is @darian314. If you're a founder and looking to have a REAL.

This is a subtle but powerful perspective. The ability to truly grasp potential versus simply moderate risk as an investor is greatly under appreciated.

As an early-stage VC, it's much more interesting to ask: "What if this works? What happens? Does everything change?". It's so damn boring to point out all the ways that something might not work. All startups are default dead. Being a cynic is the easiest way to *sound* smart.

Passing this along. Likely one of the biggest and strongest insights I've also learned building multiple companies and investing in 50+ more. If you really internalize this fact, it is incredibly empowering and freeing. You are on your own - do with that information what you.

I reiterate this to people building new products all the time. The starting point to understand consumers is ā€œnobody caresā€.

One thing you should learn to love as a founder is 'no'. No I won't work here, no I won't invest, no this won't work. Use no as an opportunity. It's a chance to learn 'why no' and improve. And 'no' can be the fuel that drives you to make the changes needed to get to yes.

The rumors of engineers demise has been greatly exaggerated. AI will unleash engineers much like other tools like IDEs/cloud services and more enabled greater productivity.
