We have a lot of work to do. We are obsessed with our fellas and are dedicated to the mission.Bulldozing barriers — the world is malleable and we shape it. We truly believe this and act accordingly. We are relentlessly resourceful and are at the mercy of no-one but ourselves.Unwavering integrity — we are at the frontier, so we often live in ambiguity with no trodden path. When we can't look to others for guidance, we must maintain impeccable ethics and unwavering integrity.Enduring frugality — we are frugal. We hate being wasteful and we are anti-luxury. We spend our cash wisely & carefully -in a way that would make our grandmas proud.Do what is needed — speed is critical and often the solutions we need are messy. We are comfortable moving quickly and taking on gritty work.End-to-end ownership — we are comfortable owning projects from noticing the problem to delivering the outcome.Dedication to excellence — we are obsessed with our role, with a commitment to compounding self-improvement.Commitment to candor — we believe in open communication and transparency. We are clear & caring communicators, welcoming feedback.Only the paranoid survive — the road of expansion is bumpy. We are not fair weather sailers; we embrace the storms. However much we've already done, however far we've already come — all our work is still ahead of us.Keep your head down — we're boring people doing exciting work. We don't chase short-term status: we ignore short-term dopamine hits and focus on what matters. Outsiders will underestimate us and we revel in that."Youjust build an amazing experience.
