I walk you through dealing with gatekeepers, and how you might navigate gatekeepers. remember that gatekeepers are people too, and they often make flawed inferences. The goal is to disregard, and keep going if they give you negative feedback.

I used to feel very guilty about blocking people that add crazy to my life, but I no longer do. It has been one of the best things that I’ve done in the last few years is to block out crazy. You don’t need more drama that sucks the life out of you. Best thing that you can possibly do is add positive voices in your world and remove those that pull you down.

I talk about how entrepreneurship is about backwards induction of trying to figure out how to get people to care about some thing that you created. It’s about realizing that almost everybody does not care, and then figuring out how to build this particular product such that people do care. It’s not intuitive at all.

Try out the platform, and give feedback on what we need to do to make it better. The only way that this is going to get better is through your feedback and by you actually using it. Let’s try to make work easier and reduce the grunt work that’s associated with what we do.

how to find product market fit? Getting the product market fit is often challenging, and I walk you through how to actually get that product market fit over the long run. The goal is to find the feature set that best resonates with the audience. However you also have to add identify the audience, in the way that you do that is continuous iteration between the product and the audience.

I remind you that the world is full of opportunities, and you simply just have to jump on them when they come your way.

The problem is is that you can’t forecast these opportunities, as the world works in nonlinear ways.

I talk about how we often guess the objective Fran in academia, particularly with those of us who are focusing during research about organizations and management. The goal is not to get a hard at the cost of other people. The goal is to you help other people as much as possible, and live your life as a decent human being.

I talked about the importance of going slow and not being too serious with new product development. The goal is to explore and try out as many things as you possibly can until you start getting product market fit. Once you get product market fit then you can start working on larger investments do you want you were doing.

I’m excited to create the R3ciprocity.com platform, which is very much a revolution in how we actually write into work. It is a substantial improvement to writing, and it makes it a lot more fun.
