Hello friends🫡
As an avid non-reader and podcast listener who didn’t enjoy reading for the longest time, it takes a lot to hold my attention. Luckily, I drive a lot. And so I have ample opportunity to listen to podcasts and audio books. There’s probably 7-8 books that have absolutely captivated me, and the majority of those have been biographies of the world’s greatest founders.
This isn’t a list “Here are the 10 greatest founders of all time” but rather the founders that you might not expect to see on TechCrunch, or any other list for that matter.
I’m a strong believer in the concept that “you are the average of the 5 people you spend your most time with”
But I think in this day and age, that concept extends to the people and the content you listen to. You are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with.
But even more so, you are the average of the 5 people you spend your precious mind time studying. If you study Hormozi for an hour a day… odds are that some of his philosophies will become your philosophies.
In an odd sense, you almost become their peer. So if you listen to the right people, you start to develop similar views of the world.
And if they’re rich as hell, that may not be a bad thing.
Stay tuned weekly to learn from the 99% of founders that aren’t named Elon, Zuck, or Bezos.
