Transcript of Alexia Tsotsis on professional perserverance for Ignite Bay Area

Why hustle is more important than talent.

1. You can learn anything you need to learn.

2. Never let the odds keep you from doing what you know in your heart you were meant to do.

“Bitch”, “Sex Tape,” & “P.Diddy,” four words I never thought I’d see in a Techmeme headline.

But I never thought I ‘d see this either.

3. NEVER, NEVER, NEVER GIVE UP.

“Whatever people are watching 10 years from now, I want to be in charge of it.” – Kenneth the Page, 30 Rock
