I have a rule for new collaborations with founders or clients: two calls. That’s it. If a decision hasn’t been made by the end of the second call, the idea or lead moves to a low-priority list.

I've just sent in my application for Iterative's accelerator. Thought that I'll make my application public so here goes. Below is my application in full.

I once had to pick poo out of my robot vacuum. It was because it was the highest leverage thing I could do then. There’s nothing beneath me. The only reason things get done by me, or not, is leverage. And this is how I hire.

The code I write today is terrible. My 25-year-old self, who wrote code for monolithic government systems, would be appalled. He would probably fire me.

Five years ago, I'd kill for this life. I'm sharing my journey through family, startup growth, and self-discovery, learning to manage challenges with less fear.

My 2 year old daughter made this comment. And I wonder if that's the environment I want her to inherit?
