  1. I'm in a place where many people don't care about building your company, is should I go on having my startup in the same place? Or I'm I making a mistake because I've been passionate about owning a company since I was young but just didn't know what to do and the processes, but later last year, I began to learn how to code and decided code my way to actually building a company

  2. Most important learning here is perhaps for parents not to hope that your kids emulate this kod but the points being made that education teaches you what to think not how to think. Also with AI and the new world time is the biggest learning opportunity and so instead of 4 years of college the future is to work with companies who have started hiring the smartest after school. Those 4 years will create greater clarity about the future.

  3. A hiring manager told me that Ivy Leagues or perceived geniuses are the hardest to work with. They always want to be the smartest in the room and also tend to be uncoachable, creating a subliminal work environment..
