New vlog this morning: Why do people steal startup ideas? And what can you do about it?

Transcript of my vlog here, in case you would rather read it

Honestly it might not be malicious. There are a finite number of good ideas at any given time because you are often constrained by the simple and important question of “Why now?”

Why do people steal ideas?

🙈 Often it isn’t stealing— there aren’t many viable ideas
🦄 “Why now?” is the main constraint— driven by tech, regs, and macro
💪 The only counter is fast execution
🏹 Be customer-focused not the competition-focused

You can win if you can outrun.
