Steph Ango (@kepano) on /obsidian's small team, user-supported, no-investor structure: 

"I just like the Ocean's Eleven model the best."

Steph reflects on different ways to build companies and how in today's world, you can build something quite ambitious with a small group:

 "In the previous company that I ran, whenever we had a problem, it was like, 'Who can we hire who is an expert on this problem?'  We'd go find the best person, hire them, and then empower them to solve this problem.

Now, if we have this problem, hiring is off the table. We basically don't hire. We have seven people full-time. We probably have three or four million users, and we're seven people. That's pretty crazy. It's definitely possible to do something like that."

Base

🟢 Today is a good Saturday to build on @base

What are your most difficult goals? And why do you think they're impossible?

What haven't you achieved yet? And how old are you?

I adore my friends, parents, and acquaintances. I won't stop talking about it. They are the best people on the planet.

I hope I'm as cool as the people around me.

I noticed that there are very nice and friendly people in my environment, so I am developing in the same direction

You will always reflect the qualities of your friends unfortunately or fortunately this is a fact, so choose good people.

you always need to pay attention to your surroundings, this is very important and you should communicate with people better than you in order to strive

as people say, be friends with 3 millionaires and you will become the fourth

You are always a reflection of your surroundings, so choose the right people.

If you are understanding, then the people around you will be too.

I try to be kind to people and they are kind to me.

Kindness is not a weakness, but a strength! There is enough anger, negativity and ill will in the world as it is. Let's make the world a better place together by giving people kindness, smiles and warmth.  After all, every act of kindness is a small step towards a happy and harmonious life for everyone!
