"gm members,
As a distraction from a 50% haircut of your networth YTD, I'd love to share a 2hr interview to Andrew Reed from Sequoia.
It's great to see him go deep on investing, and going from Associate to the youngest partner at Sequoia. For some reason, I see myself in him and his way viewing the world, shifting from pure quantitative to a more qualitative view, even at the growth stage.
It's also empowering to hear the apprenticeship stories from Doug, Mike and Pat, a couple are:
1/ Doug reinvented himself from a pure SaaS investor to a consumer investor with Nubank, a lesson to always widen your aperture, and sometimes the best opportunities might be "outside of scope", in those cases, don't guilt-trip yourself for thinking that way.
2/ From Mike, it's the vision of the future now.
3/ From Pat, the work ethic: if you chip away at the stone every day, one day it will crack."
