Hey everyone, If you're new here, welcome to Never Enough, where I brain dump interesting stuff that has been on my mind over the last week. I get distracted easily. If I’m not careful, I’m easily led down rabbit trails and become unfocused across 20 browser tabs. Oddly, despite being easily distracted, I find that I work best from cafes. I’ve always found the silence of a closed-door office overwhelming. Over the last twenty years, I’ve tried everything from fancy private offices, to buzzy...

Hey everyone, If you're new here, welcome to Never Enough, where I brain dump interesting stuff that has been on my mind over the last week. “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” I’ve always loved this quote by Arthur C.

It’s called Never Enough and it’s a memoir about building my business over the last twenty years. Going from a barista making $6.50 an hour, to being a billionaire (spoiler: I’m not a billionaire anymore). It was a crazy experience, and it was fun to put it all down in writing. I thought I was going to write a business book, but as I started writing it evolved...

Hey everyone, If you're new here, welcome to Never Enough, where I brain dump interesting stuff that has been on my mind over the last week. Every day, I’d feel the burning. First, the pressure in my stomach would build. Then the right side of my throat would feel like someone had a blow torch to it.It was acid reflux. And I had it almost every day for a decade. It started when I was about 25. Subtle, at first. I could take a Tums, and it would go away. No big deal. But before long, it became...

Hey everyone, If you're new here, welcome to Never Enough, where I brain dump interesting stuff that has been on my mind over the last week. Today's edition is brought to you by Athena*. The last thing I want to do is spend time calling the optometrist to get my latest prescription. Last year, I hired Tina, my Athena assistant, and tasks like this disappeared from view.
