Ambition grounded in usefulness
Be delusional about what's possible. We want people who genuinely believe we can pull off things that sound unreasonable. But ambition only counts when it's aimed. Know the outcome you're chasing and why it matters, then point everything at it. Busy isn't the goal. Long hours aren't the goal. Results are. Dream huge, then be ruthless about what actually gets us there.
- Pick the outcome first. Then work backwards. Always know what you're solving for.
- If it doesn't move us towards the goal, stop doing it.
- Hard work is the price, not the point.
