What really makes me pause at this point is not that someone has that unique of a thought process, it's that they've been able to distill it in a really memorable way, like Dawkins memetics. Like the idea of being on your deathbed and having no regrets; that's a very basic concept. I feel like a lot of people throughout history have had that idea, but Jeff Bezos put it into The Regret Minimization Framework and that sticks. -- John Coogan SHOW NOTES 03:32 - Introduction 04:40 - Big tobacco and the end of cigarettes 07:00 - Society needs Einstein's as well as generalists and those building different knowledge sets 11:10 - From high school rivals to co-founders 14:17 - Fake it till you make it in silicon valley 18:02 - Distilling complex ideas like Jeff Bezos and Paul Graham 21:30 - I had an empty calendar and read books for weeks in YC 24:57 - America should have a very high customer satisfaction rate 30:17 - At what point did Theranos become a fraud? 35:25 - The main Marxist critique is capitalists are well off than workers 40:16 - We don't have enough founders working on multi-decade problems 43:21 - The second-order effects of building tech infrastructure 45:21 - There's lack of fragmentation in the college education market 51:40 - 3 books that will have a huge impact on civilization ------------------------------------------------------------- You can connect with John here (https://twitter.com/johncoogan) Check out his Youtube here --> https://www.youtube.com/c/JohnCooganPlus My DMs are open for conversations (https://twitter.com/AbhishekLpd) --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/intellectual-software/message

Episode Summary: Our guest today once worked as a chemical engineer at Chevron. He now has over thirty-six years of real estate industry experience that helps him provide great insights for industry agents. Joining us is Ira Serkes, Real Estate Specialist at Compass Realty. Ira and his wife Carol specialize in helping sell and buy homes in Berkeley and the surrounding communities. In this episode, join Ira and me to discover some of the advice Ira has to share from being in the industry for over three decades. We also discuss Ira's community and photography blog and his definition of work/life balance. Top Takeaways: Ira Serkes' Advice for New Agents Ira Serkes had many great pieces of advice for new agents. He first recommends the book Ninja Selling by Larry Kendall, citing the book and the correlating class as the best he has taken and read. Ira also shares his idea on real estate by saying, "Real estate is not your life; it simply funds it." Ira mentions The Regret Minimization Framework concept, the thought process to minimize one's life regrets. Ira urges new agents to seek a harmonious life rather than a balanced life as there will be many times when things in life require more time than usual. Ira finished by saying, "Always remember what is important." As we reflect on the years, it is more evident than ever that we do not know what tomorrow will bring. "That's my mission, is to let people be aware of these [decisive, life-altering] moments and recognize them ideally in time. Also, to recognize that real estate is not your life. It simply funds your life. The thing that is truly important is to live your life in a way that when you look back, you don't say, 'Gee, I wish I would have done something.'" – Ira Serkes [12:11] "I've never seen my role as selling things; that's a byproduct. What's it a byproduct of? Providing buyers or sellers with information so that they can make the right decision." – Ira Serkes [14:57] Episode Highlights: [00:18] Intro [00:44] Meet Ira Serkes – Bronx to Berkeley [01:25] Growing Up in the Bronx [03:23] Attending the Bronx High School of Science [06:04] Pursuing a Bachelor's in Chemical Engineering at Cooper Union [09:15] Attending the University of Massachusetts Amherst for Master's [10:07] Patents and Seizing the Opportunities Life Offers [12:40] Working with Engineers in the Real Estate Industry [17:20] Working for Chevron Led to Living in Berkeley Since 1974 [21:27] What Living in Berkeley Is Like [24:26] Ira's Blog BerkeleyHomes.com [28:03] Tips on Building a Business and Referring Out Leads [35:29] Master of Yelp Reviews [39:36] Ira's Advice for New Agents [44:53] Connect with Ira [45:46] Closing Thoughts [46:17] Outro Episode Notes: Joining us today is Ira Serkes, Real Estate Specialist at Compass Realty, helping buyers and sellers alike in the Berkeley and surrounding communities.

Pek Pongpaet didn't take the https://www.impekable.com/ (agency) he was building seriously in the early days. The CEO felt the judging eyes of other entrepreneurs in the Bay Area. "Oh that's cute! But what are you really working on?" There was something bigger he was supposed to be chasing after. Something more real. But his agency was attracting more clients and getting more work. It WAS bigger. It WAS real. Why couldn't he just be happy with that? In this episode, https://www.impekable.com/ (Impekable) CEO Pek Pongpaet and I discuss: Why Pek felt like his business wasn’t serious compared to what other people were working on Why he’s always chasing the next shiny thing The importance of providing stability for his tribe His techniques to do fewer things better How he got into the martial art Wushu and performing for the Mortal Kombat video games Why he relates to the Regret Minimization Framework from Jeff Bezos How he thinks about work life integration
"I knew that when I was 80 I was not going to regret having tried this. I was not going to regret trying to participate in this thing called the Internet that I thought was going to be a really big deal. I knew that if I failed I wouldn’t regret that, but I knew the one thing I might regret is not ever having tried." - Jeff Bezos
For this nineteenth episode, I talked to John Kim of SendBird, the user-to-user messaging backend that powers the chat of websites and apps like Reddit. Based on the belief that starting a company was the only way he could do what he loved, John started one of Korea’s first startups, raised money in an environment that had never heard about it, and then was one of the first to sell his startup to a company outside Korea. After this, John started a community for moms, raised money for it, pivoted (before that was even a word) to a messaging backend company, and got accepted to Y Combinator. He’s now leading one of the hottest messaging companies around. We talk about his extremely rational way of making decisions, the Korean ecosystem and work ethic, the Intrinsic Motivation Framework, and yet again, the Regret Minimization Framework.
For this eighteenth episode, I talked to Bryant Chou of Webflow, one of the leading website building platforms in the world. After working at Intuit, the company behind Quickbooks and other software, and then launching his own startup in mobile advertising, Bryant co-founded Webflow to bring responsive design capabilities to website builders. We talk about Webflow’s infinitely large roadmap, how it’s like to combine being a first-time parent with having a growth company, the Regret Minimization Framework and the importance of faster product-market fit.
Jeff Bezos learned very early in his career and work with Amazon how we wanted to make big decisions. Calling it his "Regret Minimization Framework", he talks about how at the end of the day we are going to regret the things we didn't do, rather than the things we failed at.
Learn how to plan your life like a billionaire. I love talking about the importance of mindset in wealth building. We haven’t visited mindset for a long-time, so I thought we would today. Recently I was reading about Amazon founder, Jeff Bezos. He was a successful investment banker who quit his job. Left in the middle of the year and left his big bonus. Jeff talked to his boss about it, who said great idea, but better for someone else who does this stuff not you! Think long-term for your life decisions. He calls it “Regret Minimization Framework”. Project your life forward to age 80. Look back on your life. Minimize the regrets in your life. Look back on your life. He wouldn’t regret trying to participate in the internet. Wouldn’t regret failure. The one thing he would regret is not having tried. That would haunt him every day. Gets you away from the daily pieces of confusion, like leaving his bonus. Think long-term to make good life decisions you won’t regret later.

He also shares his journey going from studying computer science and software engineering in college to what he does today, and the various stages along the way.4.

Joydeep goes into his day to day , and the job he does surrounding the Facebook Pixel. He explains what the Facebook Pixel is, and how it benefits business owners who use online advertising to make sales.6.

He then spends time looking at data surrounding growth, and determining why something is growing, in order to build products surrounding that marketing opportunity.7. He breaks the job down into 2 parts: Inbound Marketing which helps them answers the questions: What do we build, who do we build for, what do they need and why?8. The second part is Outbound Marketing: the product is built at this point, so how do we package it? How do we talk about it? How do we get it out to market?
