"If you think youre mentally tough because you do cold plunges I encourage you to do family pool time at a YMCA. Rinsing off chlorinated over-stimulated toddlers in icy water after an hour of preventing them from trying to drown themselves is really how you test your metal"

"Good founders get really good at "root problem analysis." There is no time to solve something that isn't the kernel or source of many issues. It's where the idea of PMF comes from. Big companies thrive on people solving non-root cause issues. Its where bureaucracy comes from"
