How do you build a company?” And I have the most boring answer in the world — a list. We literally had a document where every day we would just have a list of a few of the things that needed to get done. We’d cross off the list so we'd know what the other person is doing and we’d just keep going from there. So it doesn't sound super romantic or sexy, but it was all lists and they were awesome." "You can build a company if you understand how to reach out to other people and create a story and work to humanize a product that you're developing. You are an absolute integral part to building something impactful for the world." "I think the number one thing that I learned and I don't think is unique to the tech industry is that you want to be the kind of person people want to work with and that is the number one criteria for success. You want to support people and you want to follow through when you say you're going to do something."
