Dharmesh is one of those people, and I think he's right about this, that he leans into his strengths and he completely ignores his weaknesses. And if he puts his mind on a strength, he gets really, really good at it. In the early days of HubSpot, he put his mind to SEO, became one of the foremost experts in SEO. Yeah, he's amazing, and he's really. But if it's not in his wheelhouse or he's not interested in doing, you ask him to do it. Like, Dharmesh, can you pick this chair up or this pillow? Dharmesh, would you mind picking this pillow up? It's too hard. I can't. I just can't. I can't do it. I can't do it. But if he wants to do it, he can pick this whole building up over his head.
