The spiritual path is not for the faint of heart.

It is both the toughest of life’s paths and the most rewarding.

All journeys are unique.

But all lead to the same place: total love and oneness.

The path requires alignment of mind, body, and spirit.

All are a part of You.

One without the other leads to imbalance.

Recognize and nurture all aspects of You.

I’ll show you how.

Soon DAOs will be plug & play.

This might be humanity’s biggest shift yet.

Here’s why it changes everything 👇

1/ Easily programmable communities

Community building used to be labor intensive and manual.

High cost, friction, resources, time spent.

Soon anyone anywhere will be able to spin one up overnight.

Just clone the code.

2/ Directly aligned financial incentives

It was near impossible to have community and aligned financial incentives in the same sentence.

There is no stronger motivating force on the planet than financial incentives.

Now it will be at the very core of community.

How to build a sales team:

To start, a note of credit to the great Jim Herbold from Box.

He was my hands-on mentor for many years. Bolt sales would not exist without him.

Much of this is learned wisdom from him.

Ok, here we go 👇

1/ Close the first deals yourself, end-to-end

It’s impossible to now how to construct a sales team without first knowing how to conduct a sale.

Some founders try to hire before this step.

Doing so is skipping a crucial step of getting intimate with your product and customers.

How I’ve focused my time and energy scaling Bolt from 1 to 400 people:

1/

The job as CEO completely changes every time the company 2X’s.

A CEO for a 5 person company is vastly different from 10 people, 20 people, and so on.

It’s important to recognize this, and lead as appropriate to your stage.

2/

Bad leaders want to make themselves irreplaceable.

Good leaders replace themselves with those more capable.

Growing as a CEO means leaning into this.

The CEO job is effectively an anti-job: to continually put oneself out of work to gain compounding leverage.

At Bolt, we’ve hired 400+ exceptional people.

Even in our earliest days, we were hiring out of Facebook, Twitter, and Google.

The secret?

Let’s dig in:

1/ Nail the vision

It’s day 1, and you might have nothing to your name.

But even still, you have something that no one else has.

That’s your vision.

How is this world going to change? How are you going to be a part of it?

In the early days, vision is your most lethal weapon.

2/ Nail You

On top of vision, you have... You.

Your story, corks, values, passions.

In meetings, let your personality shine through.

Don’t hesitate to get vulnerable.

Ultimately, candidates are deciding if they believe in you as a leader.

Show them who you are.

10 more mega trends that are about to change our future 👇👇👇

Education

Gone are the days of placement exams and useless memorization.

Soon we’ll realize that real world skills taught by real world experts matter more.

We’ll enable our kids to pursue their passions, not the next chapter in a textbook.

We’ll re-learn how to learn.

Venture Capital

VC will be so good at funding disruption, that it will disrupt itself.

Raising from the public means raising from your customers

It can lead to higher valuations and more flexible control provisions.

And the company builds an army of supporters!
