I wish I had started therapy earlier, as it can help navigate the predictable mental health challenges that come with being a founder.

I wish someone had taught me the importance of conviction and resilience over a long period of time in entrepreneurship.

Life happens for you, not to you; this perspective shift is crucial for personal growth and understanding that challenges can lead to greater strength and wisdom.

You can control more than you think; if you let the world happen to you, it will, but if you want to make something happen, you can choose to do so.

I believe that my success is largely due to luck, particularly being born into a supportive family and having the right opportunities.

I wish I could tell my younger self not to let intuition be overridden by experience when hiring. Early on, I relied on my gut feeling, but later, I found myself substituting intuition with others' judgments, which can lead to poor decisions.

I realized too late that I had wasted time doubting my place in the company, which hindered my ability to push forward.

I believe that my perception of events can turn them into good luck moments, like seeing 11:11 or 9:11 as signs of being on the right path.

Belief in oneself precedes ability; the external world often gets this backwards, as believing you can achieve something is essential for taking action.
