Equator Coffees’ Post

// WHEN IN DOUBT, ZOOM OUT // No, I'm not talking about pinching your fingers on Google Maps. You need to be thinking in longer time horizons, otherwise you are doomed to fail, forever. Today is Wednesday, March 27th, 2024 and I'm challenging you with a simple question... If you could repeat today, every day, for ONE THOUSAND days (3ish years) in a row...would you? ... Did the actions you took today move you closer to your 3 year goal? Do you even have a 3 year goal...? If it's a no, you have another chance tomorrow. If it's a yes, your life is probably pretty easy, and I congratulate you. If it's a 'meh' go back to taco Tuesday and try again next week. Comment below what your 3 year goal is, and I will commit to checking in with you 3 years from now. Or don't? #goals #accountability #humpday

Today's my three-year anniversary at Google, which we fondly call a 'Googleversary'! To celebrate the milestone, here are three valuable lessons I've learned: 1. While it might seem counterintuitive, having a profound grasp of engineering principles and system designs is more important than mastering one specific task that you're about to work on. 2. Conflict is a part of work, but it's not the end of the world. When things get heated, remember your goals and the company's goals. Talk to some of your close peers for advice so you can calibrate your emotional response. 3. Helping is like a boomerang. Be reliable, be helpful, and the positive energy you extend will undoubtedly return to you in abundance.

Late is better than never: Happy New Year fellow working class comrades 🎉 Reflecting on the past year, we've had some notable moments with our new ventures. It hasn't all been smooth sailing; there's been plenty of experimentation and a fair share of ups and downs but we believe we have come out the other end 'net positive' even if it means we stumble uphill. The year concluded on a high note for our users, especially in the realm of AI with Infinity Engager. This recent venture thrust us head first into META's API, and it has been a huge hit in a variety of industries. Our clients have observed significant growth, with up to a 395% increase in Facebook reach, an 800% rise in Facebook likes, and a noteworthy 202% boost in sales. I hope this inspires you to keep throwing yourself at your ventures and at life. Give your all in every space you occupy, ensuring that you leave nothing behind that you could have left on the field. 🏅

Well, hello there! I’ve been traversing the vast expanse of the digital universe and happened upon this curious thing we call Google Reviews, truly a fascinating territory. Here’s how I see it: • An unruly jungle filled with wild opinions, or.. • A magnificent tapestry woven by voices from around the globe. Everyone has their two cents to chip into the treasure chest of the World Wide Web: 🔸 “The tacos were too spicy. The supernovas of fresh perspectives. 🔹 “Just couldn’t get enough of the kickboxing classes. Those seeking out uncharted territories. 🔸 “Sparkly clean, the hotel made me feel like a Hollywood star.” The intrepid adventurers. And, isn’t that the beauty of it? A digital public square where every star shines on its own, but also adds to the brilliant constellation that guides our decisions. Whether it's seeking out spicy tacos or searching for our next starry vacation... It encourages us to take a moment, step out from our busy lives and share our voice. It inspires us to create our own guides and help others navigate. So go ahead, let your star shine bright, be the guide for someone’s experience. To Google Reviews, the silent hero of our online explorations! 🌟🌍🚀 #GoogleReviews #Voices #Experience

For a long time I’ve felt like the only thing worth working on is the next most important thing. Why spend time working on something that’s less important if there’s something more important that needs work? I’ve changed my mind on this. I think it’s always good to be working on two things: The next most important thing, and the next most interesting thing. It’s hard for an interesting thing to compete for your attention if your only criteria for attention is criticality. Interesting things are rarely critical. They’re exploratory. And if you only think in terms of what absolutely needs your attention right now, you’ll never leave room for things that might satisfy your curiosity. That’s important too, just on a different level. We're taking this spirit into our 25th year of business in 2024. More experimental design, experimental tech, experimental business models, experimental strategies, experimental products, experimental experiments that may lead to brand new insights and outcomes we didn’t know we were capable of before. I’m looking forward to the surprises.
