👤 What's your job ?
🙂 I'm a Venture Capitalist
👤 What is it ?
🙂 The best job in the world
👤 How's that ?!
🙂 It's is cool, easy & profitable...
🗣️ Not true !
🗣️ Unfair !
🗣️ Shut up !
🗣️ WTF !
🗣️ No way !
🗣️ ...
😎 Cool: I get to back people willing to build the future of our society.

😬 Easy: Those people do all the hard work while we watch & try to support.

🤑 Profitable: It's a secured model of guaranteed management fees regardless the performance + carried interests.
👤 So what does it imply then ?
🙂 Live up by the founders' expectations
👤 Meaning ?
🙂 Be polite
🙂 Provide answers
🙂 Be honest
🙂 Provide thorough thinking
🙂 Be reliable
🙂 Provide decent feedbacks
🙂 Be humble
🙂 ...
The list goes on... but the long story short is that your attitude, always before your aptitude, will define and determine your altitude 🌄

It's because the downsides are so little in Venture Capital that we can and should take risk 🤺

The best arises from the impossible 🚀

I love how Twitter feeds me with opinions, lessons & interactions. You are free to use it the way you want. It feels like the company actually respects how people adopt the platform.

You don't need followers to enjoy it,
You can engage/disengage easily,

#0
The platform is still trapped in infinity through the constant flow of content and interactions that prevent people from mastering the time they pass on Twitter and how it feeds them in a meaningful way.

This search for fulfillness-enabling consumer apps is real,

#1
Entrepreneurs building a new kind of products, allowing people to perform simple actions that will explicitly help them find true fulfillness, this is the next wave of companies that we are looking to invest in the consumer space.

Friday Replay #1

Equal equity split among founders, infinitely, is a non-sense.
And not talking about it is a big mistake.
Go with radical, truthful transparency.

Because there is no autopilot mode for relationships and execution.

Friday Replay #2

Best practices for board meetings.
Help yourself, most of your investors won't,
Take the driver's seat because no one else will...

Governance requires as much commitment as Company building.

#0 20 Obvious Learnings From Our Best Founders
#1 The best founders are able to manage both attention to details and velocity towards the highest level of performance.
#2 The best founders aim beyond 100% in everything they do (learning, hiring, managing, leading, executing…), because they implicitly understand the value of compounded effects. 95%, compounded infinitely, tends towards zero, while 105% tends to infinity.

1) WARNING! No One In the Media and the Majority Of Politicians Don’t Want the Wall….. Don’t Allow Them To Gaslight You

I felt compelled to write this based on what I am reading and seeing on Twitter, MSM etc. You have major bigwigs that don’t want the Wall for different
2) reasons. The Koch Brothers, corporations etc. want cheap labor to come into our country. The Cartel payoff many politicians and MSM members to make sure articles and votes stop the building of the Wall.

In the El Chapo trial, we found out that the former President of Mexico,
3) Pena Nieto, took close to $100 million in bribes. You know he wasn’t the only one. Many in our Congress today received plenty of money as well.

The Murdochs had Megyn Kelly try to eliminate our President at a debate because of his stance on Immigration. The CoC pay millions

“Ronaldo vs Messi: who’s better?”

“Oooh that was quick. And you played with Ronaldo too”

Rooney: “Yeah I think, I’ve said this before but they’re both probably the best two players ever to play the game and I just think Messi is in my eyes the greatest ever”

I was born & raised in #Medellin Colombia, an amazing & vibrant city in the middle of the mountains.

Please do not mention #Narcos or #Escobar when you hear Medellin!

Medellin is much more than that #eternalspring #innovation #Entrepreneurship #mountains #coffee #greatpeople

It's art up for review in opinions, of course I'm going to gravitate towards something shared with interest, when he didn't say a word for 2 days! Why was he there? #opendata #smartcities #bigdata #ai
I went through every single video he released in hip hop to understand him not saying a word. Easy to work out, he's a very bitter man who has absorbed all his parents immigrant opinions at home #opendata #smartcities #bigdata #ai
His parents are not middle class anywhere & neither is he #opendata #smartcities #bigdata #ai

#b Excellence is overrated, competence is underrated.
Competence is knowing what to do in a situation and how to do it. It is not the same as excellence.
Excellence is dependent on other people, like judges, examiners, teachers, assessors, inspectors, auditors. But we can't control these people and whether they think we're excellent or not.
