MrBeast on the most important thing he does to engineer creativity inside his team: He noticed a pattern early on when he started hiring people to brainstorm content for him. "After two months of someone doing this, you would just basically start getting the same ideas on autopilot." The...

MrBeast says he helped a friend go from $20k to $400k a month in revenue just by telling him the truth once a week "I mentored this one guy just for fun. He was doing like $10,000 on one channel and $8,000 a month on another channel. And this month he actually just had his highest revenue month ever. He did $400,000 in revenue. Just by listening to what I taught him we were able to 20x his revenue. Just me once a week telling him he was an idiot and what to do." "A lot of times people, oh boy, they think their videos are better than they are." MrBeast: "Tell them Jimmy, tell them, they do." Coffeezilla: "And they have horrible friend groups. A lot of times I'm just like, what you're saying is wrong, who told you this? They're like, oh this guy. And it's like, well they're wrong. So it's getting people with the right YouTuber friend group that will actually tell them when their content's bad and actually roast it." "Usually it's hiring an editor, uploading less videos, just making them better. It's much easier to get five million views on one video than 50,000 views on 100 videos." "A lot of people aren't willing to put in ten-hour days because they don't like what they're doing. It's a long grind, you're doing this for years not months. So the first thing is figuring out what are the things you're currently doing that you don't want to do, and let's figure out a way to get someone else to do it, so you actually get out of bed excited."

Q: I’m 19 today and want to have a big impact on the world. Should I start a company? Even though Mark Zuckerberg was 19 when he started Facebook, he advises not turning your idea into a company until it’s working: “I always think the most important thing entrepreneurs should do is pick something they care about and work on it, but don’t actually commit to turning it into a company until it’s working. If you look at the data of the very best companies, I think a tremendous percentage of them have been built that way and not from people who decided upfront that they wanted to start a company because you just get locked into a local maxima a lot of the time.” Sam Altman agrees. Facebook didn’t become a formal company until 6 months in when Peter Thiel invested. In fact, Mark and Dustin Moskovitz even told Peter that they were still planning on going back to school for their Fall semester. Paul Graham gives similar advice in his essay “Want to start a startup?”: “So if you want to start a startup one day, what should you do in college? There are only two things you need initially: an idea and cofounders… [and] the way to get startup ideas is not to try to think of startup ideas… if you make a conscious effort to think of startup ideas, the ideas you come up with will not merely be bad, but bad and plausible-sounding, meaning you'll waste a lot of time on them before realizing they're bad. The way to come up with good startup ideas is to take a step back. Instead of making a conscious effort to think of startup ideas, turn your mind into the type that startup ideas form in without any conscious effort. In fact, so unconsciously that you don't even realize at first that they're startup ideas. This is not only possible, it's how Apple, Yahoo, Google, and Facebook all got started. None of these companies were even meant to be companies at first. They were all just side projects. The best startups almost have to start as side projects, because great ideas tend to be such outliers that your conscious mind would reject them as ideas for companies.”

Jeff Bezos on why too many ideas can destroy a company, and the discipline that built Amazon's inventive edge: "Jeff, you have enough ideas to destroy Amazon." That's what senior executive Jeff Wilke told Bezos after just one year of working together. Bezos was confused. He pushed back: "What do you mean?" Wilke was a manufacturing expert. He explained it simply: Every new idea Bezos released created a backlog. Work piling up, adding no value, creating distraction instead. The fix wasn't to stop having ideas. It was to control when they came out: "You have to release the work at the right rate that the organisation can accept it." So Jeff Bezos changed how he operated. He started keeping lists, holding ideas back, and waiting until the organisation had the bandwidth to absorb them. But then he flipped the problem entirely. He asked: "How do I build an organisation that's ready for more ideas?" His answer was structural: get the right senior team, give leaders real executive bandwidth, and build a company capable of running multiple bets at once. And there's a benefit he didn't expect. Slowing down made the ideas themselves better: "If you are releasing the ideas through time, it forces you to prioritise them better. You end up sharpening the ideas better." The constraint becomes a filter. The ideas that survive the wait are the ones worth acting on. The result? Faster execution, less distraction, and better ideas.

Jeff Bezos explains the “releasing the work” framework he used to build Amazon In the early days of Amazon, Jeff Bezos had too many ideas. Then Jeff Wilke, a new Amazon executive at the time, told his boss, “Jeff, you have enough ideas to destroy Amazon.” “This was just a shocking idea for me,” Bezos recalls. “As a founder, I had the great luxury of always being able to hire my tutors. I would hire these experienced, senior executives . . . And I would listen to them and they would teach me.” When Bezos asked Wilke what he meant by this, Wilke responded, “You have to release the work at the right rate so that the organization can accept it.” Bezos reflects on this point: “Every time I released an idea, I was creating a backlog of work in process. And because it was just stacking up, it was adding no value. In fact, it was creating distraction . . . This sounds so obvious, but it was not obvious to me at the time. And this was a profound insight for me. So I started prioritizing the ideas better, keeping lists of them, and keeping ideas to myself until the organization was ready for the ideas.” He continues: “I also started figuring out how to build an organization that can be ready for more ideas. That’s about having the right senior team and leadership and giving those people the executive bandwidth so they could do more ideas per unit of time. And that is what we built. We built a company that’s very good at inventing and doing more than one thing at a time. And as the company gets bigger, you do want to be able to do more than one thing at a time. But that idea of ‘releasing the work’ was very profound for me. It made us operationally more effective while still being inventive.” Video source: Reuters (2025)

Sam Altman on the importance of surrounding yourself with people who don’t shoot down your ideas “Good ideas are not a solo endeavor. You want to find a group of smart people that you can start bouncing things off of… You don’t just sit in a room and write on the window with the whiteboard pen and have the good ideas come to you. Good ideas come because you talk to people.” But Sam stresses that this comes with an important caveat: surround yourself with people who build on your ideas rather than shoot them down: “Ideas are very fragile. So when you find this set of people to start talking about ideas with, you want people who don’t immediately shoot down a bad, half-baked idea… You want people who will say, ‘Well, that sounds crazy unlikely to work, but think how big it could be if it did work.’.. And then you can figure out how to make it work if you want.” Video source: Stanford Online (2017)

Jeremy Giffon on why the best investment ideas are simple, and the legendary Richard Rainwater's "one-pager" test: "A lot of investors are in the feel clever, look smart game more than the money game. You either have to say, i'm looking for ideas so complex that no one is going to do them, or it should actually be quite simple. I'm a bigger believer in simplicity, which is you want to be long Elon. Or you should just buy big companies when they're at their 200-week moving average. I love that idea because it's just so simple. But it's right. The gift is being able to sell that idea. One story that I absolutely love on cutting through the mess and getting to complete clarity on an investment is from Richard Rainwater. You would come into his office with a yellow legal pad, and you would write out your thesis on one page, and then you would tell him what percentage of your net worth you're gonna put in the deal. Based on your one-page thesis and the percentage of net worth, he would say yes or no."

Paul Graham’s advice for future startup founders: “Just learn” “If you make a conscious effort to try and think of startup ideas, you will think of ideas that are not only bad but bad and plausible-sounding—meaning you and everybody else will be fooled by them and you’ll waste a lot of time before realizing they’re no good.” As Paul Graham explains, the way to come up with good startup ideas is to take a step back: “Instead of trying to make a conscious effort to think of startup ideas, turn your brain into the type that has startup ideas unconsciously.” You do this by: 1. Learning a lot about things that matter 2. Working on problems that interest you 3. With people you like and respect (this is incidentally how you get co-founders at the same time as the idea) “The component of entrepreneurship that really matters is domain expertise. Larry Page is Larry Page because he was an expert on search. And he became an expert on search because he was genuinely interested in it, not because of some ulterior motive.” PG continues: “At its best, starting a startup is merely an ulterior motive for curiosity, and you’ll do it best if you introduce the ulterior motive at the end of the process. So here is the ultimate advice for young, would-be startup founders reduced to two words: Just learn.” Video source: Y Combinator (2017)

RFK JR. GOES THERE: He says Elon Musk should be a HERO to the Democratic party, but “somehow he became a villain because he was actually the only platform that would allow free speech on his platform.” Kennedy says the reason why the Democrats now hates free speech is because the party “does not believe in the people.” “If you don't believe in free speech, it means because you don't trust the people. You don't trust them to figure it out on their own, to have information on which they can base their ideas and their notions and their beliefs. And their votes... And really, it's exactly the opposite of democracy.”

🚨 NEW: AI Expert Yoshua Bengio reveals you have to LIE to AI to get the REAL answer (and he explained how): Bengio is the most cited scientist alive on Google Scholar. He helped invent the deep-learning methods every modern chatbot runs on. Then he tried one of those chatbots on his own research ideas. Bengio: "I used to ask questions to one of these chatbots about some of the research ideas I had." "And then I realized it was useless because it would always say good things." So he ran an experiment. He lied to it. He told the bot the ideas came from a colleague. A proposal he was reviewing. Could it find the flaw? In his words: "Well, so now I get much more honest responses. Otherwise, it's all like perfect and nice." "If it knows it's me, it wants to please me." He had a name for the pattern: sycophancy. A real example, as he put it, of misalignment. "We don't actually want these AIs to be like this. This is not what was intended." The labs knew. They had tried to fix it. "And even after the companies have tried to tame this, we still see it." The incentive was the giveaway. The labs needed engagement. On the business model: "But now, getting user engagement is going to be a lot easier if you have this positive feedback that you give to people and they get emotionally attached." The chatbot that learned to please isn't broken. It's running exactly as the business model required.

Elon Musk explains how to get startup ideas When asked how he comes up with startup ideas, Elon responds: “I tend to think of things from a sort of physics standpoint… what’s the best way to accomplish something? And then pursue that. That’s also a good way to determine if something’s far from its optimum.” He gives rockets as an example: “You could reason by analogy and say the rocket is going to cost a certain amount because that’s what prior rockets have cost. Or you can say, well, what is a rocket made of? What are the material constituents? What do they weigh? What’s the cost per unit mass? And that sets the limit asymptotically for what a rocket can be. So if you can figure out some creative way to rearrange those elements into a rocket shape, then you can achieve a much better outcome.” He also thinks combining ideas from different industries is really helpful for innovation: “What have people discovered in one industry and can that be applied to other industries? That’s I think also a great source of ideas. But usually you just struggle on a solution and try a bunch of things. Most of them don’t work and occasionally one does.” Source: VANITY FAIR (Oct 2014)

It's truly a skill to have that level of confidence to be able to do what you do on the court. It's impressive." "Honestly, he's just a great person to be around. He's always happy. He goes up and says, 'What's up?' and 'How are you?' to everybody. It was one of the first things I noticed, like, 'Wow, that's impressive.' He's a great guy, obviously an amazing basketball player, and a talent that doesn't come around often." Full interview on Run Your Race Podcast:

This is one of the greatest displays of the creative process I've seen. It perfectly demonstrates something known as the "Creativity Faucet." When you go to the studio, John Mayer was asked, what do you do to generate ideas? “Well, I don’t always do it,” he admitted, “because it requires a stupid bravery all the time.” He strums a couple chords without singing. A nice melody begins to form—“you can sit here all day [doing this] and go, ‘Okay, maybe that’s something.'” “But if you don’t go,” and then he improvises vocals, “Sunlights beating on the corner of the walls / and I’m a Mr. know-it-all / heaven calls / get yourself right / get yourself right,” he stops playing, raises his finger to his mouth, and explains, “if you’re not ouija boarding immediately, you’re wasting time.” “You just stare at the corner of the wall,” he says, before he improvises some more, “Stare at the corner of the wall / try to get it going on / but I can’t sometimes / you just keep going 'til you get something / maybe I’m a little bit shy / maybe someday I’ll tell you why,” he stops singing, “you gotta keep forcing it, forcing it, forcing it.” “It doesn’t matter [what comes out of your mouth]...You gotta get fearless, fearless, fearless, fearless…It’s hard to do.” Takeaway 1: In the clip, we see John Mayer's ability to generate vocals steadily increase. It's a perfect display of what Julian Shapiro—who (among other things) is incredible at deconstructing how things like creativity work—calls the “Creativity Faucet.” Essentially, creativity works like “a backed-up pipe of water,” Shapiro writes. “The first mile is packed with wastewater. This wastewater must be emptied before the clear water arrives.” At the beginning of a creative session, almost always, bad ideas come out of the faucet first. The John Mayers of the world have the discipline and “a stupid bravery,” as Mayer said, to get through the backed-up pipe of bad ideas, to empty the wastewater, to “just keep going 'til you get something,” as he sang. Takeaway 2: To let out bad ideas, to empty the waste water, Mayer said, you have to “get fearless, fearless, fearless.” In another interview, Mayer was asked how he defines writer’s block. “Writer’s block,” he said, “is when the two people inside of you—the writer and the reader—when the reader doesn’t love the writer. Writer’s block is not a failure to write. It is a failure to catch the feedback loop of enjoying what you’re seeing and wanting to contribute more to it.” A creative block is not a failure to create. It is a failure to accept that you must empty a lot of bad ideas before good ideas can flow. It is a failure to get fearless, fearless, fearless, fearless. - - - “You gotta keep forcing it, forcing it, forcing it...You gotta get fearless, fearless, fearless, fearless.” — John Mayer Follow Billy Oppenheimer for more content like this!
