How AJ Started Delta Timepieces, Unintuitive Leadership with Jocko, Why We Work, and More
On Work...
We don't go to work to pay bills. We don't work to provide for our families. We don't go to work to get rich and have unlimited personal freedom.
We work to become the best possible version of ourselves... the version that doesn't have to think about bills, the version who our friends and family come to in order solve problems, the version who is rich because we are strong enough and smart enough to keep the world functioning.
We work to keep the world from collapsing, and we should take on as much responsibility and risk as we can bear.

Autobiography of a Restless Mind by Dee Hock
"Community is virtue, not virtual. Virtual community is an oxymoron."
Dee is the founder of Visa! As a younger guy, I've never really looked up to finance people assuming they are fairly boring people; however, I was shocked to find Dee is a very thoughtful, creative person.
