    @19:09 He's so right - being in an environment where everyone is competitive and ambitious and wanting to make an impact is so important. Most of us think we have the self-starting energy and motivation to get it done if we think it's important. Often, bouncing ideas off to other brilliant and smart people will have huge influence. I never work out as well at home as I do at the gym.

    100% >> If you are going to start a company today, Silicon Valley will "increase your odds of success." Especially if you're an AI startup - SF gives you so many opportunities for collaborative 'collisions' w/all the ecosystem players (investors, Founders, talent, media, etc.) - it's a privilege to have that kind of access.

    0:33: 🎸 Bill Gurley, a renowned venture capitalist, has relocated to Austin, Texas, and discusses his perspective on the tech industry and his love for music. 4:46: 😬 Silicon Valley Bank's recent crisis and potential impact on startups and venture capitalists. 8:53: 💡 The best way to protect against the downside is to enjoy every last bit of the upside. Venture capital returns are most valuable during market bubbles. Uncertainty and tighter funding may impact innovation. Startups should not expect a return to the previous fantasy era. Success in venture capital requires hustle and maximizing optionality. Jeff Bezos understood how to talk to shareholders in a unique way. 12:27: 📺 Bill Gurley reflects on his investment in Uber and the challenges faced by the company. 16:21: 🔑 The interview discusses the challenges and risks of venture capital investments, the allure of Silicon Valley, and the impact of location on startup success. 21:08: 🗣 Discussion on the challenges and trends in the venture industry, including cultural tensions and the future of top tech companies.

    Great takeaway for founders and business owners: separate mentally from the management role and shareholder role. That's different a mindset where shareholder mentality will push the executive management to better results, higher efficiency and that will lead to more profitability. While shareholder mind tells you where you want to be, management mind tells you the path!
