Hi Reader,
A lot of leaders spend years chasing the wrong thing: their passion.
Lots of people have ideas about how to find your "passion" and find work that doesn't feel like work, but this is the best framework I've ever heard. You may want to even share this with your kids.
In this episode, I sit down with legendary investor Bill Gurley, an early backer of companies like Uber, OpenTable, Zillow, and more.
Bill, who has invested and advised so many companies, shares why chasing passion can actually mislead you, why curiosity is often a better compass, and how the leaders who make the biggest impact keep learning, adapting, and challenging their assumptions.
We also talk about risk, mental models, the value of peer relationships, and why younger voices may be more important to your future than you think.
If you lead in the church, this conversation will stretch you in the best way. Ditto if you're a parent thinking about your kids' future.
