You can do anything, but you can’t do everything.

Don’t ever start a company unless you’re totally focused on one totally disruptive idea.

For me, my focus has been centered around eradicating the high failure rate with startups.

Why do we accept a 90% failure rate? I...

If you’re not being called crazy, you’re not thinking big enough.

God-sized ideas always seem impossible at first. They’re not realistic.

Your critics will remind you of this.

Hey Maverick Founders —

The Elite VC (both Secular & Christian VC) like to think they get to choose the winners and the losers. How arrogant!
