That's a very genuine guy. Understands what luck is. You rarely see that in successful people. Most successful people just try to sell hard work.

[@RA-xx4mz]

(Preparedness + opportunity) * hardwork === luck Had he not worked hard, no app. No fortune. No success. The harder you work on impactful work, the luckier you get.

[@racecarjonny8460]

@@RA-xx4mz Yeah, no. I like his definition of luck more.

[@marilynlucas5128]

The harder you work (includes working smart) , the luckier you get

@@racecarjonny8460 you are not a lottery ticket -Zero to one, chapter 6 I like the guy but I think Peter Thiel debunks this 'luck' idea pretty well in his book

[@ashred9665]

Phil is an inspirational guy. No typical Silicon Valley BS.

[@Libturd]

This guy is spot on. Ive been on a path to some successes that ive never thought i would be able to achieve. But most of that is due to hard work and getting lucky. Getting lucky as in who I get to work for, who I get to learn from, what connections Ive been able to make from those, and the opportunity that comes from those connections is actually what gets you over the top. Thats why you gatta make sure you are a great human being and treat everyone right. You never know whose gonna be the one to give you a call when they need you on their team.

[@azizigweth2921]

Where are you located buddy

[@bri-shin]

What a genuine message from Phil - build something that impacts and inspires. Looking forward to more great contents!

[@DowonPD]

I think his 2 weeks+2 weeks method is quite useful to not just only product building. I think it helps me finding my behavior in general. Once I noticed what I liked or I dislike, I'd be able to organize what I needed in life. Great advice Phil!!

[@daun-ai]

I really love his thought process and products they built both evernote and mmhmm. I grew up as a teenager who heavily used evernote and currently trying to build a product and a company for better async work and I do really think he has a great influence to me.

An app that doesn't solve any problems and it's 100% gimmick! Brilliant! Oh, and in the "ridiculous name" category, it sure takes the cake! Double brilliant!

Your passion and dedication to the software development process shine through effortlessly. It's clear that you understand the true essence of working on a project when you're fully invested your time in it. We believe that everyone in the software development field knows what it means to forget everything else:)

Yeah at least he is honest by saying he is lucky. This reminded me when I was at 1871 Chicago cohort and attending a class about someone who was able to raise $1M ..it's from his family and friends and listen to this..for some kind of sport watching remote control features. I just fell Ill to my stomach.

For further development of capitalism is nothing much but more development of machinery which can cause unemployment and exploration of science should not be something which can catastrophe on earthly survival or capital is antagonist with wage labour For we living in era where capital and wage labour is abolished,marxist economics is light of day,from the time it came

What's the name of your business again?....

[@koshobai]

mmhmmm

[@reprovedcandy]

At first, I thought this guy sounded kinda sus cause he talks like the entrepreneurs I met in my early career. Too calm, too confident, and going after way too broad a market...... then I googled him and realized this dude is a hugely successful guy. Wtf!!! I came to the conclusion anyone who talks/thinks like this must be a loser cause all the people I met who acted that way were failures as entrepreneurs.

[@reprovedcandy]

I'm a micro SaaS entrepreneur cause my conclusion on meeting so many losers was the broad markets lead to ultimate $1Bn+ success or, significantly more likely, a life without any significant accomplishments and utter failure... lol
