Not everyone is charismatic or a great presenter, but his content is like someone handing you gold. He obviously took time and care in organizing his content and in making it understandable. When someone is handing you gold, do you reject it because they hand it to you in a tin cup when you would prefer crystal? No. You say... "Thank you for sharing your gold with me. I will put it to good use. " His content is fantastic. Brilliant. Tried. True. Honest. And given for the benefit of the listener. So I say, "Thank you for the gold" :) awesome preso! :)

It always amazes me how much some people are willing to give. Even if you don’t learn anything, you have to be thankful of them because by doing this they are showing that free education is possible. Kudos to them!

usually people with 'not so good' public speaking skills have better content because they spend most of the time getting that content than trying to improve their speaking skills. Also they tend to be more direct when speaking, which is way better in my opinion.

Please write this down in a book. There is so much good advice in those videos that I feel I'm missing out on lots because I can't memorize everything as quickly. Really love the videos!

Absolutely amazing! Thanks Sam, Dustin, and Stanford for putting this on for everyone world wide!

It's gold. The most full and useful material about this topic I've ever read

Covid got me into a Stanford class.

Stop complaining people. I don't care about his presentation style. All I care is about the content. And this is great content for people who want to do start-ups.

This is the most intensive video I've ever watched on youtube. So great.

It's really too good i can't even imagine that this level of content absolute free on KZread

I had been repeating the video, to absorb the concepts. This video is gold. Thanks Sam Altman!

Lots of valuable advice from both Sam and Dustin. Liked their candor about the reality of startups. I enjoyed the presentation!

15 of April, 2023. Indeed pure Gold in a ton cup! I'm sharing his views and info to anyone who will listen to wisdom and best practices in starting a startup! Kudos to you Sam Altman for your generosity.

Oh this should be youtube gold and this applies to lots of businesses, not just technological startups, the most valuable part was about idea, good product, passion and motivation. Those things might seem to be quite obvious but they are not in fact. Thank you for sharing your experience! that's a great value!

I am definitely looking forward to this class as a whole.

Almost 5 years since this was posted and it's still great material and as relevant as the day it was posted. Priceless.

I know it sounds obvious, but damn you get so much more out of these lectures if you listen to them a couple of times - at least. Repetition helps to reinforce some of the key points and it makes it easier to actually apply their advice to my own work. The one with Kevin Hale was spectacular, and probably the lecture that most people should listen to if they struggle with UX Design.

I've been watching some startup journey lately. I wanna have more control over my quality time and my life. I'm glad the KZread show me this.

Excellent - was so looking forward to this. People who have actually done something and can teach how they did it. Thank you!

14:28 is the key message of this talk: "Making and selling something that a lot of people are eager to buy"

You should only start a startup if you feel compelled by a particular problem. And you think starting a company is the best way to solve it. The specific passion should come first, and the start up second.

Guest Speaker Dustin's speech: 25:25 Dustin on "Why you should start a startup" 26:00 Entrepreneurship is glamorized. In truth it's stressful, tedious, hard work, etc. 30:40 Ugly side of being founder: Stress, always on call, fundraising, unwanted media attention, you can't just leave your own startup, people are dependent on you. 32:40 "Being your own boss" is a myth as presented. In reality, everyone is your boss. Your employees, customers, partners, etc. 35:40 "You'll make more money" and "have more impact" are myths as presented. 40:43 So what's the best reason to start a startup? You can't not do it. Passion: You NEED to do it. Aptitude: The world needs it. 43:35 Recommended reading list.

So far so good. This lecture series sounds like it will pan out to be an excellent collection of ideas, tips, and guidance.

I'm seriously considering joining your VIP group. Your insights have been so valuable to me!

Find here my notes for this lecture. Lecture 1: How to Start a Startup Section 1: Ideas, Products, Teams and Execution Part I Four areas that we must excel at to maximize our chances to have a successful startup: - Idea: - Working on a good idea is very important and we should allocate a reasonable amount of time to find one. - Long term thinking is a huge advantage in startups. - Mission-orientd ideas are the ones who gets the maximum of focus, dedication and support. - Great ideas tend to look terrible at the beginning. - When evaluating an idea we must think of the size and especially the growth of the merket, the growth strategy for the company, the defensibility strategy and not just the product. - Product: - Build a product and get it as good as possible by talking to your users, nothing else matters. - Build something that a small number of people love rather than a big number of people like (my favorite part :)). - Start with something simple. - Find your users of the feedback cycle by hand and make them love the product. - The indicator of a great product is the growth. - Team: - Execution: Section 2: Why To Start A Startup - Starting a startup needs hard work, responsibility, dedication and commitment. - The most difficult skill to learn as a CEO is managing your own psychology. - Have a passion for the idea.

I'm half way through the lectures right now. I love the material but I feel like my questions pertain to the initial idea of beginning a start up. Say you have an idea for an app or a product. Where do you start? I mean like if you have some revolutionary idea to make chocolate and its just you going in alone. How do you get that idea into being a real thing? Where do you find a company and people who will take your idea and work with it? I'm pretty much at this point right now.

+fhoplist You need to have some unique resources to make things happen.

If you don't have any of the necessary resources, the idea will stay as idea forever.

Please consider a podcast version of this series. It'll be very helpful to entrepreneurs who commute, and those who rely on poor internet or public wifi (eg. from developing countries). It should work since the talk is very lecture style and does not really rely on slides. I suggest soundcloud.

This is amazing. I urge youth of India to watch less Instagram and Facebook. Invest precious time of your life by watching and learning from channels and videos like these. Great and Amazing content.

"Its easier to expand from something that a small number of people love to something that a lot of people love, then from something that a lot of people like to a lot of people love" BARS!!!
