Invest Like the Best with Patrick O'Shaughnessy
· Brian Chesky, Patrick O'Shaughnessy
I saw potential in people they didn't see in themselves. And that's my management philosophy. When I tell somebody it's not good enough, I'm not saying you're not good enough. I'm saying I see potential in you that you don't see in yourself. That is the most motivating thing you can do. To say, I believe in you and I believe you can do even more. And people will climb a mountain for that type of thing. And maybe the way to finally end this whole conversation, is the most important person ever that you can believe in is yourself. And I think a lot of us that are entrepreneurs, we're driven by insecurity. We're driven by some hole. Not all of us, but a lot of us. Something in our childhood, something – a lot of us were not the coolest kids or whatever. And there's something in us we wanted to prove. And then you get really successful and you still have imposter syndrome. And a lot of the path to happiness and salvation is just the path of like learning to believe in yourself. For me, I only believed in myself long after other people believed in me. And now my gift is to try to give it to others. [00:00:00] S0: Beautiful place to close. Thanks man.
