And so the idea is if you want to achieve big things, you're actually better off just pursuing things that are interesting. This is true of ourselves and our lives, I think is true of companies when they companies want to innovate and accomplish big things. That random walk, that kind of random mutation that happens is the best way to achieve big objectives. And as counterintuitive as not, again, how we're trained, I've had to learn that. That's a really hard lesson. Just go do what's interesting. There's so many examples of that, by the way, people who did that, who just went after things that were interesting to them. Tripped into big outcomes.
Some of the most amazing discoveries come from just poking around, and then, doing deep dives into the darkness of ignorance. I am interested in innovation. Not in innovation itself, but in making innovations. I am always looking to explore new and divergent avenues to success. It would be exciting to work for a company that values exploration into the unknown.
