It's very hard to be an effective hustler. It takes a very special mindset. Just finished Billion Dollar Loser about WeWork, and one extreme hustler that stuck in my head was Masayoshi Son (Masa). Have you ever seen any of his "300-year horizon vision" slides? They are horrible: https://www.businessinsider.com/13-slides-softbanks-vision-for-next-300-years-2017-10 https://www.businessinsider.com/13-slides-softbanks-vision-f... If anyone else popped these slides out, they would be asked to go back to elementary school, while any designers in the room would pour acid in their eyes to unsee those. What I am saying is, some people are not particularly brilliant (and IMO, Masa is not), and even the analysts at SoftBank saw the WeWork pyramid con from 100 miles out. Masa is a special kind of nuts, however, deciding to come up with one implementable idea every day, when he was at UC Berkley. He is a breed of hustler with a nuclear motor up his butt that never stops running, throwing shit at the wall until something sticks. But again, very few people have the perseverance and the energy, so know yourself.
