Founders Talk - Part 3
Posted on December 6, 2012
Adam Stacoviak was kind enough to have me on Founders Talk for a third time! I'm super honored that he wanted to do a part 3.
From Adam:
Core take away? Embrace risk. Stay focused.
I think that's the heart of what I have to say. Focus and doing are key.
Here is the article I mentioned about the Hipstamatic story. (It was Fast Company not Inc. Oops.)
Give it a listen. Also be sure to listen to part 1 and part 2 first if you haven't heard them.
Update: Check out part 4.

This is a story about the last 3 months of my life.
So my work history is pretty hilarious. If I was in any other industry, you'd think I was a deadbeat that can't hold down a job. It's slightly different for engineers in San Francisco, but that doesn't change the fact that I change jobs a decent amount.
Anyway, I was doing Nothing Magical for awhile. It was amazing. I was bootstrapping a company all by myself off of my savings. It turns out when your rent is $3,200, cash goes pretty quickly. (I now live in a much cheaper place, but more on that later.) Anyway, I ran out of money. I had the option to pursue freelance to support myself and not get a day job.
