In case your parents decided to torture you
|
Look at what I learned today from the great Isra Bravo. ​ Imagine you are born today. Yes… today. ​ Imagine now that your parents want to torture you. And they decide to make you watch all the videos uploaded to YouTube today. Just the day of your birth… As a welcoming gift to you to introduce you to the world you’re going to live on. ​ I repeat. ​ Not a single more. ​ Well… ​ Do you know when you would finish watching them? ​ ​ Hundreds of thousands of hours of content are uploaded every single day—just on YouTube. ​ That being said, do you still think that bulk information is worth anything today? ​ ​ Better get comfortable—because it’s going to take a while. ​ What’s truly valuable comes down to two things:

I did it once… Years ago. A change to be “approved” before the end of the year. So we rushed. Design team, commercial, legal, operations, the construction… everyone. Sleepless...
As many of you, I’m flying now. Holidays. Family. “Relax”… if a three years-old allow you to do so. Before I used my more than 20 hours of flight time to catch up with movies or read that book I definitely wanted to have read before arriving to destination.
