In this episode, Erik Kruger and John Sanei revisit a blog post written in 2019 by Sam Altman, the founder of Chat GPT.

They unpack of his 13 thoughts on how to achieve outlier success. Sam writes "Everything here is easier to do once you’ve already reached a baseline degree of success (through privilege or effort) and want to put in the work to turn that into outlier success. [1] But much of it applies to anyone."
