How to Become a Rebel

Joining a startup or starting a startup means that you choose life.

There's a rebel against, 'It can't be done'.

A startup is one of the best vessels and vehicles for rebellion.

We all have the chance to change the world for the better.

Better a short no than a long maybe.

When people start to fight you, you've progressed pretty far because you are one step away from winning.

One of the greatest beauties of building a startup is that you're going to figure out who you are.

Perfection is going to kill you.

Startups don't die because they run out of money, they die because they don't figure out who they are.

What differentiates the people who succeed is that they're the ugly ducklings who dare to fly even though they know that people are going to laugh at them one way or another 'cause they know that they're going to grown up like a swan because they're going to learn from every laugh, every interaction with other people.
