All failed companies are the same: they failed to escape competition. – Peter Thiel, Zero to One Most startups think competition drives innovation. But Thiel flips that idea. He argues that real success doesn’t come from competing harder it comes from escaping competition entirely. When you build something so unique that no one else can offer it, you move from the battlefield to a blue ocean. That’s where monopolies are born not evil ones, but creative ones that bring fresh value the world hasn’t seen before. 👉 Are you creating something truly unique… or just another version of what's already out there?
