The document outlines six lessons that the author lives by: 1) Surround yourself with people smarter than you who can teach you; 2) Accept that constant change is the only constant in business; 3) Take risks and fail often and quickly in order to succeed; 4) Force yourself outside your daily schedule to stay curious and learn; 5) Make each day count as you only get one shot; 6) Good ideas are ultimately the most important thing and will continue to matter in the future.
