It seems a mistake to call oneself a "non-technical founder." You're treating not knowing how to do something as a part of your identity. Surely it's better just to fix that.

These AI customer service chatbots are not as useful as I had hoped.

Does anyone else think it’s mildly annoying how Claude has started critiquing the intentions of questions?

Gentle reminder that there are still some very successful businesses that do not have a website. Your vibe coded app does not prove AI is taking every job.

Oops. Some more inconvenient facts for the AI doomers.

Few people understand that Ray Kroc started in door-to-door sales before scaling McDonald's. The lesson? Your current opportunity is not likely to be your last and can help form you into the person you need to be. You might need to get rejected thousands of times before you learn the skill of sales. Then once you find the right opportunity, it becomes easier to scale because you now know how to sell. Oh and by the way... it's not too late. He was 52 when he joined McDonalds.

Join my door-to-door sales team and this can be you. 😉
one of the single greatest tactic for your social life is the concept of "assumed familiarity". once you know this concept you notice it in every charismatic man. makes you instantly likable. just act like you've known others for years already.

While tech companies keep pushing AI doomerism, the data in the real world says otherwise.

Signs you might be trying to get your frontier AI lab nationalized: You compare it to nukes… threaten half of white-collar jobs… warn recursive self-improvement could end humanity… then race ahead anyway. In other words, you want the government to save us from… you.

The more experience I get, the more I realize that 90% of the business advice out there is in books written 50-100 years ago.

Especially as more and more people use AI as crutch to make decisions for them.
Your intuition is your best secret

Just because people (or an AI) talk about a topic with confidence does not make them automatically correct.

"I don't understand the companies that sell door to door. No one buys anything at the door anymore." One second while I grab the thousands of contracts we sold over a year.

AI companies asking for regulation is really just them creating moats for their companies so smaller startups cannot compete.

Do not hang out with losers. It is contagious.

Everyone saying AI is too expensive for it to be useful is completely missing the boat. This happens with all new tech and the price will inevitably come down.

It’s amazing how solvable your problems are if you just took the time to genuinely focus on solving them for an extended period of time.
