Key takeaways from this episode: Opportunity hides inside obstacles (the diesel crisis → Xenon). Do things that don’t scale early. Nothing is beneath you. Relocate your life to sit where power sits. Travel increases the surface area for luck. Outwork the queue; control bottlenecks. Recruit A-players; sell your vision like a deal. Pay experts—small input, asymmetric output. Protect your reputation; reset fast. Property saves you in a downturn.
