At the time, search companies were failing. Yahooโs stock had crashed. Excite was bankrupt. And Google? Two PhD students who insisted on being co-CEOs and asked for a high valuation. It didnโt look like a safe bet. But two legendary investors, John Doerr and Mike Moritz, saw the potential. They ignored the doubts, broke the usual rules, and invested. That decision changed everything. Bill later realized his mistake. In venture capital, you can only lose what you invest, but missing a company like Google? Thatโs a 10,000x loss. The real risk isnโt making a bad investmentโitโs failing to see the right one. This changed his thinking: Instead of asking What could go wrong? he started asking What could go right? He stopped fearing small losses and focused on finding the next big winner. He learned that sometimes, the best investments happen when you break your own rules. Tesla was another example. Many doubted it, but those who believed made fortunes. The biggest mistake isnโt losing money. Itโs missing the future. ๐๐ผ๐น๐น๐ผ๐ Vishu Bheda ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐บ๐ผ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐๐ฎ๐น๐๐ฎ๐ฏ๐น๐ฒ ๐๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐๐๐ฝ ๐ถ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ด๐ต๐๐ ๐ณ๐ฟ๐ผ๐บ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐น๐ฑ'๐ ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐๐ ๐ณ๐ผ๐๐ป๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐!
