“Upstart Microsoft didn’t fear giant IBM … upstart Google didn’t fear giant Microsoft … upstart Facebook didn’t fear giant Google … and some unknown upstart who is working in his garage at this very moment doesn’t fear giant Facebook. Nor should you fear giants. Never forget that you have many advantages over the big guys, one of the most important being that you can move much more swiftly than elephants like IBM, Microsoft, Google, and Facebook. After all, they are under tremendous pressure to build more and more lung capacity just to be able to absorb enough air. While the giants are huffing and puffing to fend off predators, you have the luxury of concentrating on action.”
