What was your learning path of really becoming a business person and an entrepreneur that could not just, you know, sell stuff on a street corner, but really create a business and scale it and get involved in that kind of enterprise level with the marketplace?
My learning process was going to smarter people and always asking questions and walking the room vulnerable and knowing that I didn't know anything until I started making money. And then I fucked everything up because I thought I knew everything at that point. And then I went back again, some hard thinking, and said, you're about to screw this whole thing up, you know, just because you made the money, look how fast you lost it. You better start doing something right now and humbling yourself and asking questions.
