A defining feature of the age of AI is the “fog of war” of not knowing what’s going to happen next in the market. This post I wrote as an entrepreneur back in 2013 feels relevant again and I find myself using it as a lens lately. nabeel.medium.com/28b5c0391cec

The rate of gliomas— or brain cancer— is exploding. Over the last ten years, there have been 5x as many cases. There's so much more that we could do against this disease, and we'd love to be a part of the fight against it. @SurbhiSarnaSF
One regret I have over the last 20 years of my professional career is not being an even better cheerleader for my friends and network. Support your friends. What else is there?

Product managers often get the feedback that they aren't being strategic enough. But this feedback is rarely accompanied by any concrete advice on how to actually become more strategic, leaving many PMs struggling to figure out how to fill this skill gap. To address this common…

“Launching” is over-rated. Most of the time it's a flop; a huge waste of time, and hurts morale. Even in the best case, you still have to earn customers systematically for the next 3 years. Just work on THAT.

a few years ago, i asked @naval what he thought of “cfo.ai” he said “.ai” will obsolete quickly since everything will be AI, and suggested “runway.com” instead he was prescient as usual. soon “powered by AI” will sound as weird as “powered by AJAX”
If you really want something - a job, a big customer, a candidate to join your team - write an email explaining why. Don’t use AI. Spend an hour on it. Edit it and then edit it again. Make it absolutely clear that you've thought hard about it and that you mean it. It is…
i literally run a company that sells financial modeling software. seed stage startups should be spending all their time on getting to pmf, not making up numbers on a spreadsheet for vcs.
Financial models are back! For years founders rolled their eyes when I asked them to take me thru the model…. ‘I mean we have one, but we are pre-seed so it doesn’t mean anything’ Yikes noooo.
A defining feature of the age of AI is the “fog of war” of not knowing what’s going to happen next in the market. This post I wrote as an entrepreneur back in 2013 feels relevant again and I find myself using it as a lens lately. nabeel.medium.com/28b5c0391cec
@Suhail The biggest cultural problem holding us back is that society holds the production of criticism at similar importance to that of building. It isn’t. But the critics inherited the airwaves from the builders.
