At a certain size, the job of a founder switches from building a product to building a company. It drove me crazy for a while to not be building a product directly ... until I realized that for a founder, the company is the product.

So messed up that so much of my college finance classes focused on useless concepts with no real world application like the efficient market hypothesis or the idea that stocks can go down

The biggest generator of long term results is learning to do things when you don't feel like doing them. If you let excuses or emotion drive behavior, you're cheating yourself. Put aside the excuses and start doing what you need to do.

“You’re probably right” is becoming one of my favorite phrases. Whenever someone disagrees with you on a small matter (read: most things), you can just shrug, say “you’re probably right” and move on. Not caring about winning trivial arguments saves so much time and energy.

Design Skill: A Comparison Tesla: Cutout is sized for the cable to fit inside, sheltered, and follow its contours Lincoln: Rips off Tesla's design, but makes the cutout a little too small for the cable, so it sticks out awkwardly. Ford: "I'm not even going to try" ht/PeterJA

Your product & your company's culture are represented in the defaults selected for the people it serves. e.g. Apple asks you if you're willing to be tracked vs Google default: you must opt-out.

Just received one of the best (and nerdiest) approval messages from my senior on my serializer pull request. It's been a challenging few days, but this comment made it all worthwhile! ❤️ #joblove #WomenInTech #WomenWhoCode

Don’t launch something too pretty. It may lead you to thinking you have product-market fit but you may actually just have design-designers fit.

I think laziness is a cardinal sin -- not in the sense that you should always keep busy, but in the sense that if you have the potential to create something that can be useful to others, then you should do everything you can to make it happen
