@joshfrank Increasingly, I'm seeing business success as:

"Helping people make progress in their lives."

I'm building @TransistorFM with @jonbuda this year, and we're not confident about a lot of things!

But... we're really trying to listen to customers, and help make their lives better.

To achieve success, sacrifice your:
- ego

Don't sacrifice your:
- sleep
- family
- values
- nutrition
- exercise
- mental health
- close relationships

Yes, success often requires sacrifice.

The important part is choosing the *right things* to sacrifice.

@tylertringas That's always been the threat, yup.

The smart ones expand to other platforms as soon as they can. (Ie. start with Stripe, but then expand to PayPal)

Or...

You make your money (while it's good) and then invest in other opportunities when it dies.

What % of ad clicks are your competitors maliciously trying to bring up your customer acquisition costs? 🤔

A surefire way to be more interesting and meet more people:

HAVE A COOL PROJECT THAT YOU CAN TELL PEOPLE ABOUT.

For example, if you say: “Oh, I have a YouTube channel where autonomous drones fight each other,” it's for damned sure I'm going to check that out.

Rule #1: almost all career and entrepreneurial progress comes from the relationships you've built along the way.

(Skills are important too, but it's relationships that really opens doors)

A few things about this.

1. I helped Adam / Zapier out with something. I didn't expect anything in return. This little gift is a nice surprise.

2. What makes it EXTRA special is that Adam pays attention. He knows that my favorite coffee shop is @ratiovernon in #vernonbc.

If you program today, tomorrow, and every day after that, you’re a programmer.

If you design today, tomorrow, and every day after that, you’re a designer.

If you run today, tomorrow, and every day after that, you’re a runner.
