Alex Lieberman: 我从小在金融世家长大,大学期间创办了Morning Brew,起初只是为了提升自己和帮助同学了解商业新闻。后来,我意识到这可以发展成一个商业项目,并为此付出了大量的时间和精力。在大学期间,我通过各种方式推广Morning Brew,例如在课堂上宣传、建立大学大使项目等。毕业后,我一边在摩根士丹利工作,一边发展Morning Brew。在经历了一段时间的挣扎后,我最终决定全职投入Morning Brew。创业过程中,我学习了销售和讲故事的重要性,并通过不断练习和反思来提升自己的能力。我也认识到拖延症对我的影响,并尝试通过各种方法来克服它。在2020年,我将Morning Brew出售给了Axel Springer,这让我获得了巨额财富,但我并没有因此感到特别兴奋,因为我的生活方式并没有发生太大的改变。现在,我正在探索自己未来的方向,并尝试寻找新的目标和动力。 Ali Abdaal: 我与Alex Lieberman进行了一次深入的对话,探讨了他创办Morning Brew的经历以及他从中获得的经验教训。Alex分享了他如何克服挑战,如何找到人生目标,以及如何处理财富带来的压力。他强调了销售和讲故事的重要性,以及克服拖延症的方法。他还谈到了心理健康的重要性,以及如何找到适合自己的心理治疗师。Alex的经历和经验对于那些想要创业或在事业上取得成功的人们来说,具有重要的启示意义。
