Quotes:
- "If you want to be successful, you need to narrow down, like just be specific with what you're looking for, and specificity starts with: where do you want to be? … What kind of business do you want to operate? … I think that's really important to identify where you feel most comfortable because where you feel most comfortable and what you're most passionate about, you'll be successful in that space."
- "Twitter is about compounding. You've got to, over a long period of time, post consistent good content, and over time you will compound … Reddit is different. On Reddit, you can write, and as long as it resonates with a few people, then it starts to pick up."
- "That was like my epiphany to this. It was like, Twitter is fantastic, and if I could find other growth-minded, hyper-successful, or at least focused people, that'd be a really cool group to continue to expand."
