#20. Build Your Own Reality, Create The Future! (Travis Kalanick: Co-Founder of Uber and Foodie)

On this episode of Coder Caffeine we talk Moroccan mint lattes from Los Angeles, decode a motivational quote from Travis Kalanick, and provide a quick mental framing to take you from having a vision to creating your own reality! You'll also hear a motivational Mantra brought to you with a huge quantity of coffee based enthusiasm to power your day - all because we want you to overcome obstacles and triumph like Travis Kalanick! Between 2015-2017 there was intense scrutiny and regulatory pushback from governments worldwide against Uber. Travis Kalanick and the Uber team overcame these obstacles by engaging in global diplomacy, adapting to local regulations, building local partnerships, and installing better communication practicing with users - ultimately resulting in the expansion of hundreds of cities worldwide. In 2018, Travis would go on to sell his Uber shares for $1.4 billion, and later in 2020, he would sell the rest of his shares for $2.8 Billion. Believe in your vision. Keep going. Keep coding!
