"90% of you will do what is expected of you as opposed to what you want to do." at 7:13. Very apt
The number is probably 99.
And that’s Fine 😁
Infact GREAT 👏🏻

Every time I am procrastinating, I watch this man's interviews and always get back
I am in the same vain. But, I am really eager to know Why on earth is that happen?

But not when he tries to close a public beach he cant win. Arrogance, greed = a hole loser
This is the only 1 hr talk, I watch every time after I fail at something. The wisdom just 2Xs everytime.
Vinod has the accent and the typical bluntness of a smart, successful old Indian Man. Very classy!
So true.

Really great experience listening to him.
Surely was a phenomenal speech.
A lot of people consistently say they’ll make millions each new year but don’t plan how they’re gonna make it, which investment they’ll put funds in, which skill to acquire. There’s so much opportunity to earn and multiply funds.
I’m currently trying to get into stocks and crypto trading. I have a target of hitting $300,000 annual profit this year and I believe that’s achievable.
@@joerobert1801 Risky investments but good luck buddy.
@@joerobert1801 It is totally achievable if you trade with the right skills, I made my first million through consistent trading in crypto, and that was achieved with the help of my trading coach Dan Raziel, who takes on my trade and ensure I benefit irrespective of how the market turns. There are some stocks in my portfolio as well that has done the numbers.
Stocks and crypto trading are no doubt one of the simplest forms of generating passive income, I bought my first Nft few weeks ag
@@noelstout3056 I’m aware of Dan Raziel, read about his trades.. quite impressive. Are you at all bothered about the risks?
Every time I watch this I realize the importance of speaking the truth/honesty, entering action with boldness, having a belief system/core values/purpose of having a point of view/internal compass, perseverance and conviction. The best slogan I will always remember "Prefer brutal honesty over hypocritical politeness"
failure does not matter, success does + no one remembers your failures + willingness to fail is what gives ability to succeed + most people are so afraid of failing that they don't even try !! wow !!
I took an action and told someone honestly what I was thinking about, after watching this interview. I sent an email explaining my position, which I was a bit reluctant to accept before. OMG, this guys arrogance of clarity is so attractive. I wish to be as bluntly honest as this guy one day. Respect Vinod Khosla. We Indians take lot of pride when we see you as our role model.
My 3rd time going back to this video in my career. I love Vinod’s mentality. Our internal compass is all that matters.
Great interviews deserve an exclusive spot next to.... everyone's bed. There is always something new to be learnt from RE-listening to this interview. This is epic. I suspect that 10% of you who will not do what is expected of you and you will likely be one of those watching this from UA-cam. Cheers.
It gets like gold from 25:55 and it's about general risk taking and innovation, not just investing.
Thank you Stanford for all these videos.
I don't know who this guy is, but hes saying some really great, insightful, and wonderful stuff, very good interview. If more peoples philosophical frameworks were as developed, and refined as his, the world would be in much better shape.
The first 12 mins or so speaks volumes.
He is old version of obama
CEO of Sun Microsystems, Company that invented Java?
I really like your talk, straightforward and brutally honest.
i've seen this view over 10 times, it has taught me a lot about a) crisis management and b) ambition
Not yacht but rather the freedom of brutal honesty, applaud
I am honestly thankful for this hour of yours, sir! I mean it.
I feel very proud that, i invested 54:44 of my time in watching this video, better than any MBA
Love ur thoughts it's crazy how watching all the greats really changes ur thought process thank u for Ur time
One of the best interviews I’ve seen. No messing about here. 🙌
This video is pure Gold. Thank you Mr. Khosla for sharing your wisdom
*Astounding personality* 🙏
Never stop learning, because life never stops teaching. ❤
Very good frase
Thanks
Very good frase
Thanks
How amazing is the mindset of this Sir.
Love that this gentleman and leader gives his honest opinions without sugarcoating.
Will come back again and again cause it is interesting, feels like there is something that I know I need is here. 2022--> March, Dec,30 Jan
Amazing, best one on stanford regarding personal beliefs
I can not believe that is working perfect. Thanks a lot for sharing.
Wow its been 5 years and his wisdom sounds great...👍🧿
I really enjoyed that, thanks so much Vinod, I totally agree. Great talk, going to look for more of your talks. Take care
Some real wisdom in this talk
Bro, this thing is pure gold. Thanks
This man is different he adds new vision in business l learning from him a lot in this interview all my respect from Egypt
In other words: follow your heart and your beliefs and don't be afraid to fail.
He has a very Socratic approach. To quote Socrates, "the only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing." Very powerful interview.
Sooooo inspiring ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
His thoughts 💭 are crisp and clear
Failure indeed does matter. It's the ladder to success.
This was amazing and inspiring at the same time.
“Being polite generally means being dishonest”
This is just bullshit. This statement declares that honesty and politeness are mutually exclusive characteristics.
Hypocritical polite
@@jubayermufid1710 OVERpolite is the word he is looking for. If someone is overly polite and happy to see you, rest assure they're dishonest.
Most of the times 😁
@@True38 exactly. it was very clear he was identifying those guys who always say the nicest things.
Is guy has an amazing attitude
he speak based on experience so his word really reach us
That's what I believe in and what I teach my students, disobey the rules and disregard what the teachers instruct u, if that's what u think is right
Agreed
I have fond memories of Steve Mcneal, Vinod Kosla & Eric Schmit. Great Guys.
Amazing man.Very few people have this kind of philosophy in life.Liked the way he lives. Great.Very few people bring change in society.He is one ☝️.
Imagine being the person who let Vinod Khosla sleep on their couch. Altered the course of all the lives who got utility or will get utility from all of the companies Vinod Khosla had a hand in.
Good interview, great content !!
It's true that investing and taking calculated risks is important in achieving financial success, but what's more important is the mindset and philosophy behind it. Khosla's emphasis on speaking the truth, having a strong belief system, and being persistent and bold in pursuing one's goals is truly inspiring. His message is universal and applicable not just in the world of finance and business, but in all aspects of life. Let's all take a page from his book and strive to live with integrity, purpose, and perseverance.
I have failed twice this year in delloI interview now I am back got some relief
Brutal honesty needed but not hypocritical politeness .
vinod khosla. one heck of a legend.

There should be an option of superlike on YT.
Wow ! So great
This man is a gem
That was very good
Excellent
"House, MD" is very influential.
There are so many possible cause-and-effects, so it's like "Hey, study more, and you'll figure it out."
Also, having time to see what we naturally do as hobbies helps avoid going out and stuff.
I can 💯 percent say he is truley indian love to hear him and his bold thoughts 😎
Nice video.
Legend 🙏
lovely
inspiration
Wisdom!
Perseverance, belief system...
Wow, having websites/phone_apps of real-life problems and academic questions
would let anyone with technology stand out.
Wow! "Most people increase the probability of success but as a result decrease the consequence of success"
Time stamp??
The related discussion starts from 25:55. Highly recommended to watch from there. The statement comes around 30:40
25:00 career advice♥️
He's so happy while telling the story of how he moved out of India 😂
@Alfred Einstein Einstein ka beta yaha kya kar raha hai?
He actually laughed one trillion times in the entire run. It doesn't mean he was demeaning all those things. USA isn't everything there are people living outside of US who lives far happier life than gun drowned country
India is a richly corrupt country of innocently poor people where laws are completely in favor of women and children and get away with it.
Why Sundar Pichai cannot be Sundar Pichai in ?India
@ Satya Nadela , Ajay Banga , Indira Nooyi the list keeps on going .
@@Marketing-oo3bi all of them you just mentioned had to leave India to get a better life. Only if you are corrupt enough you grow in India.
Literally reminding me of my dad w the persistence thing and my mom w the duty thing. I'm going to combine this video w the one of Lily Singh photoshopping herself into her goals to see them and "manifest" them and make this my motto. #LetsGo #CreateTheWinWin #JustSaying LOVE this video. Thank you. ✌❤
The Interviewer was very good...did not interrrupt and was very good listener!!!
He died
I read a wonderful novel "Murder mystery of reporter" by Jaiprakash Jha. An interesting book to read.
Amazing
Statement at 30:00 appears quite blunt. I am inclined to agree with it
While I strongly disagree with some of this points, it is refreshing to hear his bluntness and strong opinions.
Classy.
Would have appreciated more sound volume.
Anyways, thanks for sharing.
LIFE IS JUST TO LOVE AND TO BE LOVED ❤️ LOVE ALONE CAN CONQUER THE WORLD 🌍
"Whats your belief system? 90% of you will do what is expected of you as opposed to what you want to do"
10 minutes in and it is already quite a roast for Eng majors
😂😂
Follow the right pattern of transformation.
So refreshing hearing people directly tell what they think. Woke culture inside of big tech and fake politeness are terrible.
I agree..
I hated how I pushed myself to climb up the stairs in a brand-new building at Texas A&M, and I basically met someone who reminded me of an Asian, pediatric urologist.
