it feels like anyway that it's kind of become like a trendy thing to be an entrepreneur whereas a lot of times like you might even notice people they don't know what they want to do they don't know what problem they want to solve or product they want to develop they just want to be an entrepreneur because it it seems like it's like this cool the cool thing now do you find that to be the case and if so is that a good thing ah yes entrepreneurship i think that it is highly romanticized and uh it's easy to believe all you got to do is drop out of college and next thing you know you're a zuckerberg yeah and you have a company with billions of dollars but that's not how it works folks and uh i so i do think that entrepreneurship is a mindset you don't have to start a company to be an entrepreneur it's a and if you were to look at the spanish equivalent you know like emprender to like undertake it is someone who makes something happen and you can innovate within a company that is not your own within an organization that is not your own or you can create a company so it's someone who makes things happen at the end of the day so who is it is it in a are we in a boom cycle i think if we're looking at tech entrepreneurship absolutely i think that there are certain experiences every human being should have even if they fail i do think that starting a business or enterprise even if it's a side gig that they moonlight is worth the education but there's a huge survivorship bias out there meaning so you open a barrens let's say and lo and behold you see all these mutual funds advertising oh my god they've had incredible returns for 10 years straight well uh maybe they're just the mutual funds that happen to survive by luck for 10 or 20 years they happen to place the right bet so of the 500 well the other 490 are no longer advertising so you're getting if you're getting a false sample size and you see that a lot with entrepreneurship they don't talk enough about the failures they don't talk enough about the vast majority who will fail is it good i think that it's good for certain groups it's certainly good for investors if they can play the game well because even if there are a thousand shitty ideas that might mean if more people a higher percentage of say high schoolers or college students or otherwise are going into entrepreneurship that you get an extra five that change the world at the end of the day so i am i am a big fan of entrepreneurship even though much like anything else that is perceived as high risk and therefore treated sometimes with reckless abandon where people are throwing hail mary's when they should be doing risk management you're going to have a high fatality rate yeah and i don't view that as a bad thing necessarily uh but i do think that and this is actually uh a question that brian johnson who's a friend of mine he started a company called braintree it was sold for i think 800 million cash to ebay and uh he settled huh yeah he said he uh say he shows up in uh in tools titans as well but a question that he has because he's constantly flooded with various questions from entrepreneurs who want to make 800 million dollars let's say oh what should i do this should i do that what about this idea what about that idea and he just asks them is it an itch or is it a burn and he's like if it's just a little itch don't do it you're going to fail because for the other people out there where it's a burn they can't not do it they're going to rip your face off and uh that i think is a very good question and you know the other one uh which i think originally came from let me think about this now evander holyfield's first coach told him that he could be heavyweight or at the time a probably cruiserweight champion of the world and he asked amanda if he wanted to do it and uh he said he didn't know he had to ask his mom so he went back asked his mom yes i would like to do it he said well is that is that a is that a dream or is that a goal those are two very very different things so i think that uh if you feel like you can't not do it or on the flip side as i would probably approach it if you can look at it as a short-term experiment where you're doing a phase one to see if you can develop any traction or get 10 friends to buy whatever it might be and you can cap the downside i always think about this first i don't think about the 800 million i might make how can i cap the downside then by all means you're taking in my opinion the measured intelligent approach hey yeah throw a bunch on the wall and see if anything sticks yeah because it's not really like the the trend the fad you know that i mentioned um that's not really what it says um it's like saying i mean now we kind of have this emergence of like the grind work hard and that's now that's kind of cool you know the the working sure 20 hours a week like that's kind of becoming like you know uh who is it a gary vee how he you know grinding 20 hours a day yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah it's it's it can work i think that you just have to be careful what i would suggest everybody do and i'm not sure if it's still on wikipedia i believe it is study cognitive biases yeah humans get themselves into a lot of trouble with cognitive biases whether it's sunk cost fallacy you've put x amount of money or time into something and therefore you continue to put good money after bad because you feel like you have to make it back the same way you lost it or the survivorship bias that i talked about you have there's a big difference between correlation and causation things that happen at the same time things that for instance and things that cause something else to happen so you you just have to ask like of a thousand people who do x how many are going to get the outcome that is being showcased and if the answer is i don't know then you should be really careful about assuming that a leads to b right uh and for me it also comes back to the adherence so if i'm trying to coach a hundred entrepreneurs and if i'm talking to three entrepreneurs it's very case by case but if i'm talking to a class which i did for a long time class of high-tech entrepreneurs 100 students hypothetically i want the advice i give them to apply to the greatest percentage of people in the class as possible or to be usable and if i say 20 hours a day there might be one or two mutants who can do that and sustain it the rest are going to flame out and for me in that environment it's about finding first the the good program you can follow as opposed to the best program that will knock out 99 but environment dependent now if we're in buds okay that might be a different situation if you're training dogs for say military or police utilization probably a different story if you are looking for athletes for ultra endurance competition or 24 hour plus competitions you are looking for mutants make no mistake about it but if i'm trying to encourage the greatest number of people to attempt entrepreneurship and succeed then i'm going to adjust my advice accordingly hey do you ever i get a lot of sleep for instance people are like oh my god that ferrous guy is a four hour you must get two hours of sleep a night i've done all sorts of weird stuff with sleep deprivation i've done polyphasic sleep where i've gotten whatever it is two to four hours a night for ages on end but my default is eight to nine hours a night i love sleep i'm sorry jacko but i just love it hey do you ever get um like you know how like entrepreneurship as like this the trendy thing to do do you ever get annoyed when you see like posers you know you know how they subscribe to all the things and then they always want to talk about it and they use all the jargon you know i would say i'll tell you what annoys me more i don't mind people who are blissfully unaware and extremely enthusiastic because quite frankly well i shouldn't speak for everybody but i think everybody's been there like i remember graduating in 99 oh my god was i excited to get into tech and entrepreneurship because i remember this fact i we i kind of knew a friend of a friend who sold the company for some ungodly sum of money 340 million i was like what that guy's smart but he's not that smart yeah and it was a very exciting time and i i don't think in that in that world that excitement can be undervalued really i think it's the fuel i think it's it's a big part of the fuel the people who bother me are the b players who think they're elon musk or the or the once you're lucky couldn't pull it off twice or didn't attempt like once you're lucky twice you're good the people who had good timing and now think they walk on water yeah like like they can they start like a course now those kind of guys oh they're a million different varieties and i mean i'd like i'd love to see them all run off a cliff like lemmings i mean they make me absolutely insane because the best of the best of the best when you meet them they don't act like dicks well i should take it back there are probably a few but in general they have nothing to prove they have nothing to prove like marcelo garcia he doesn't walk around with invisible lat syndrome yeah yeah like mean mugging people in the street are you kidding me he could he could destroy all he just doesn't he's so far above it he doesn't care he's a nice guy to begin with but uh yeah the folks walk around with a lot of attitude and are acting here's the here's the description entitled people who feel like the world owes them something those people make me insane and there's a lot of in silicon valley that's part of the reason i stopped all of my early stage tech investing two years ago i was like i'm out i'm out this is no fun anymore for a lot of reasons but that was one of them i was like i'm sick of sitting down with people who have something sketched out on a piece of paper and now they're asking for 20 million dollars or a 20 million dollar valuation i'm just like what have you done hey good on you great plan i know you want to change the world like everybody i've talked to today with your photo sharing app fantastic what have you built before because you walked in here like you're you know levitating because you walk on water and i appreciate the confidence slash arrogance but what have you actually built the entitlement is what i can't stand and one of my favorite answers i ask people a lot of the time if you could put anything on a billboard what would your answer be so there are a few favorites discipline equals freedom that's one another is no one owes you anything that's good no one owes you anything it's from a multiple time world champion and uh yeah i think that by hooker crook a lot of the entrepreneurs and otherwise who feel entitled will get served humbled by whether it's by competition or by the universe so i don't have to do it myself yeah i was going to say i don't think this even has anything to do with entrepreneurs you know you just get people that are actually yeah that's tough that's just the way it is yeah yeah it's interesting it is interesting to be that guy yeah my uh my brother he goes to san francisco from time to time he has a tech company um and they uh he he he said it's interesting that it's this fad now like you have like groupies of tech entrepreneurship like you have fanboys you have posers to be a business person you know it's not like you know like a rock star anymore it's like i'm a tech entrepreneur oh yeah it's uh it's a weird environment but i'm very much of the opinion that as perverse as it might seem or as perverse as it is on many levels and weird and unsustainable there's good that will come from it yeah um the more entrance you have in the race it's just like the more freaks and mutants you're gonna find and those those people are interesting so i'm cool with it i'm just gonna wait until there's blood in the streets and the game's a little easier for me
