I love what the Valley does. I love company building. I love startups. I love technology companies. I love new technology. I love this process of invention. Being able to participate in that as a founder and a product creator or as an investor or a board member I just find that hugely satisfying.
If you live long enough you'll make mistakes. But if you learn from them you'll be a better person. It's how you handle adversity not how it affects you. The main thing is never quit never quit never quit.
