Question How has a failure, or apparent failure, set you up for later success? Do you have a favourite failure? Failure & regret

Well yes, but like I said, small mistakes or small failures. We take small failures very often. We have failures in investment. We have failures in operation, but no big mistakes or big failures. How do we take that? Like ordinary business.

Question What advice would you give your twenty-year-old self, and what should they ignore? Time & hindsight

The first thing to recommend is that they don’t work in some place that they don’t like, that they don’t do things that they don’t like. That they look for what they really want to do and what kind of thing they want to be involved in, or if they want to go it alone by themselves, to find that.
