In this video, filmed at the top of Mount Pisch in the Dolomites (yes, during a thunderstorm warning), I break down why every single business I’ve started has been in industries where I had no idea what I was doing—and why that’s exactly what made them successful.
From starting Bitmaker at 21 with zero coding skills, to building Herb after 287 rejections, to creating Founder OS with “impossible” expectations, being underestimated has been my secret weapon.
You’ll discover the 3 reasons why being underestimated is your biggest advantage, how to use doubt as fuel like Michael Jordan, and why striking from the shadows like Steve Jobs transforms doubters into fans overnight.
