I generally think if you do good things for people in the world, that comes back and you benefit from it over time.
Books allow you to fully explore a topic and immerse yourself in a deeper way than most media today. I'm looking forward to shifting more of my media diet towards reading books.
You grow more when you get more people's perspective.
By giving people the power to share, we're making the world more transparent.
My number one piece of advice is: you should learn how to program.
Don't discount yourself, no matter what you're doing,
The biggest risk is not taking any risk... In a world that changing really quickly, the only strategy that is guaranteed to fail is not taking risks.
If you just work on stuff that you like and you're passionate about, you don't have to have a master plan with how things will play out.
There is a huge need and a huge opportunity to get everyone in the world connected, to give everyone a voice and to help transform society for the future. The scale of the technology and infrastructure that must be built is unprecedented, and we believe this is the most important problem we can focus on.
Move fast, take risks, it's okay to try big things you're better off trying something and having it not work and learning from that than having not done anything at all.
Don't discount yourself, no matter what you're doing. Everyone has a unique perspective that they can bring to the world.
The biggest risk is not taking any risk.
I think a simple rule of business is, if you do the things that are easier first, then you can actually make a lot of progress.
In a world that's changing so quickly, you're guaranteed to fail if you don't take any risks.
