1
At Stanford, you kind of started your first thing.
2
It was a classified ad site, is that right?
3
Yeah.
4
As many people know, and I'm not sure how this has changed to date at Stanford and other schools,
5
but like no one has money and all you want to do is get a fridge for your room, right?
6
And I'm pretty certain that every single year someone starts this startup,
7
and I caught this trap too,
8
which is just like, how do you allow students to trade goods at the beginning and end of the year?
9
And there's this interesting mismatch between like the end of the year,
10
people want to get rid of the stuff in the beginning of the year,
11
everyone wants to buy stuff.
12
So I sat down and I decided to teach myself Ruby on Rails.
13
And I was like, this is going to be a really awesome skill.
14
So I learned that, learned about databases and learned enough to be dangerous.
15
And this is like one of the lessons in entrepreneurship is that like,
16
you don't have to be the best,
17
but you have to be dangerous, right?
18
You have to learn just enough to be dangerous to build an idea,
19
concept it, and show it to the world.
20
And then it turns out there are lots of other people,
21
including all 170 employees that work at Instagram,
22
who are much better at doing all that stuff than I am.
23
But you need to find people who can,
24
you know, be drawn to the idea that you build,
25
and then they end up taking it and making it even better.
26
So I worked on a classified ads startup at Stanford called The Tree List.
27
It was supposed to be like Craigslist,
28
but the tree is the same.
29
It was a really terrible name.
30
I'm not a marketing guy, by the way.
31
Thank you, everyone, for laughing.
32
So what's interesting, though, is I started it not at Stanford,
33
but actually while I was studying abroad in Florence.
34
So I love art history.
35
I love photography, obviously.
36
So I'd studied in Florence for three months.
37
And I remember we didn't have much to do after class because,
38
you know, it was the winter.
39
It was cold.
40
You know, I think the program had 12 students in it.
41
So you'd go home to your,
42
you know, host family and you'd eat an awesome Italian dinner.
43
And then you'd sit there without TV and you'd just say,
44
okay, what do I want to do?
45
So Wi-Fi really wasn't a thing in their building.
46
And I would have my laptop and I would literally just build this site at the time on my little,
47
it was an iBook.
48
And what I would do is actually to ship code,
49
I would go outside of the apartment building, down the street.
50
And like I remember specifically one day it was snowing.
51
It doesn't snow in Florence very often,
52
so that's why I remember it.
53
It was snowing, and I would go next to the public library and lean with my laptop until I got enough signal.
54
And I would like sync FTP to make the files go to the server,
55
and then I would send off all my emails promoting it to people back at Stanford.
56
So I was literally just trying to launch this thing from afar.
57
There's so much you could learn from even launching this thing that,
58
you know, a lot of people attempt,
59
but the actual action of getting it out there,
60
like that was probably the first,
61
you know, first step to a lot of the other things that you did later.
62
Yeah, I think what probably helped too was like the idea
63
that I wasn't on the ground listening to whether
64
or not people liked it gave me enough like ammunition and confidence to like keep working on it.
65
And then all I had was like,
66
are people using this or not?
67
Not like, what do they think about it?
68
And are they judging the idea?
69
But like, are they using it?
70
And that's really important because what people tell you and how people act are very,
71
very different sometimes.
72
So the lesson I learned was not very many people were using it.
73
So we ended up, like I ended up forming the idea more into a like less of a overall Craigslist
74
and more of it just a good transfer.
75
But again, the other lesson here is sometimes it's not about the idea that you're working on,
76
but instead the skills that you're learning while you work on it.
77
And that really helped me,
78
well, not only learn to program,
79
but also like learn to market a consumer site to people.
80
And I mean, colleges are probably the best form of marketing because everyone's interconnected and they talk all the time.
81
I had the privilege of going to a Marine base once and talking to Marines about how they plan their next move.
82
And there's this phrase called bias towards action that I really was taken to.
83
So the idea that you can spend all of your time thinking about what the perfect next move is,
84
trying to plan, am I gonna work at Google?
85
Am I gonna work at Microsoft?
86
Like which one?
87
Like, am I gonna work at McKinsey or Bain?
88
like trying to figure out all,
89
like the next perfect move,
90
and spending a tremendous amount of time trying to figure that out.
91
The Marines say you can spend all the time you want,
92
but by the time you figured it out, you're dead.
93
Okay?
94
So like sometimes you need to make a trade-off of what
95
is the action I can take with the appropriate amount of information and risk to move,
96
because moving and progress is what gets us to the next step.
97
So for me, I mean,
98
when I was in school trying to figure out what to do after college,
99
all of my friends were interviewing at investment banks and Bain and McKinsey,
100
and they were getting these offer letters with six figures.
101
And I was like, oh,
102
my God, six figures right out of college is crazy.
103
By the way, it is.
104
And it is.
105
For a guy that didn't take a salary for the first two years of founding Bourbon slash Instagram,
106
it was really harrying to think that people can have such a salary out of college,
107
and you're going to go like,
108
take not a great job, right?
109
That you're going to do something that's a little riskier.
110
It turns out, and I mean,
111
don't quote me on this,
112
because your parents will kill me,
113
like, it's all going to be fine, okay?
114
When I told my parents that I was going to go do a startup,
115
and I know we're all a bit older here,
116
but like, you know, when I told my parents I was going to do a startup,
117
they're like, what about health insurance?
118
And I was like, oh, that's a good point.
119
What about health insurance?
120
So thank you, parents, for making me think of that. So let's see here.
121
It was scary, but that bias towards action was like,
122
there's no perfect next move.
123
You just need to know that by moving and learning,
124
it all adds up.
125
That summation of your experience over the last 10 years is what makes you into the thing tomorrow that will be successful.
126
And it just takes trying and trying and trying again.
127
I mean, Instagram filters came from a photography class that I took in Florence,
128
where my photography teacher gave me a square format camera called a Holga.
129
It's this plastic camera that got kind of hip with hipsters.
130
And anyway, he handed it to me and he said,
131
you should use this.
132
And as we were developing the film,
133
he's like, you know, you can change the look of the image
134
if you put these chemicals in the bath when you're developing the print.
135
And I was like, interesting.
136
So, you know, you put it in,
137
like the colors start changing to this interesting purple.
138
And I started thinking to myself,
139
like, oh, my God, this is like awesome.
140
I'm going to do it on all my prints.
141
And every time I made a print,
142
every one of the people in that class were like,
143
the prints are so cool.
144
That idea laid dormant for like five years.
145
So every little experience you have,
146
you may not give credit to,
147
but it turns out is super important for,
148
you know, being foundational in your startup going forward.
149
And you'll end up kind of figuring out how it takes form in your startup going forward.
150
But each and every little experience adds up.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
