I got the same impression.
The world rewards non-conformists deeply if you do it right.
Doing it right is mostly finding something that contributes value to the world. A non-conformist collecting toothpicks? Not so much.
Zero-to-one is a great guide for non-conformists. This, not so much.
- jsilence 11y ago"Zero-to-one is a great guide for non-conformists." Is that a book or an article? Never heard of it. Care to give a pointer?
- CapitalistCartr 11y agoIts a book by Peter Thiel.
- Qwertious 11y ago"Care to give a pointer?" https://xkcd.com/138/ https://xkcd.com/138/ But in all seriousness, it looks like it's a book by "venture capitalist, PayPal co-founder, and early Facebook investor Peter Thiel along with Blake Masters". If it's an article, it isn't on the first page of DDG or google.
- networked 11y agoThe book started out as lectures notes for a university course on startups taught by Thiel. You can find the original notes at http://blakemasters.com/peter-thiels-cs183-startup http://blakemasters.com/peter-thiels-cs183-startup. There is also an EPUB version available from https://stanfy.com/blog/epub-version-of-peter-thiel-lectures-at-stanford-university-cs183-startup/ https://stanfy.com/blog/epub-version-of-peter-thiel-lectures....
