It’s about being thoughtful and deliberate. Having deep insight instead of just hustling. Reid calls it “contrarian and right”. Peter says “startups are built on secrets” It’s about getting more done than everyone else and moving faster than everyone else, but doing that in a manner which is comfortable and looks easy. Or as Chris says “be quick but don’t hurry” Subscribe if you want to understand the actual way to win. Share with one of your friends who is launching a startup
