Something you will never hear in Apple "We need to release X product quickly before the competition" They are literally just cooking they dgaf about competition

The reason that apple created such great products is because they weren't competing with anyone They spend years on a product because they have their own standards to deliver

"Competition is for losers" >>>>> The big downside of competition is that people start shipping out of anxiety "I need to build this quickly and ship before the competition" The luxury of knowing you are unbeatable.... by refusing to compete >>>>> You use your time to release something truly astonishing The big difference is that they work because they feel they have to, you work because you feel like bringing the new thing into the world, if your work isn't perfect then you won't release it... no pressure
