    #14 Infinite Learner (Part I) — with IAC's Barry Diller
    Dec 6 2017
    Tinder. Top Gun. Roots. The Simpsons. What do they have in common? Media icon Barry Diller. Barry is what we call an "infinite learner." He’s only interested in things he's never done before. And if they’ve never been done by ANYONE? Better yet. He succeeds by embracing that he is, in fact, a master of nothing. Entrepreneurs, take note: You just might be an infinite learner yourself, and Barry shares a lesson or two you can use.

    In your company’s darkest moment, remember: You CAN pivot from failure to success. But only if you slash and burn everything that isn’t working.

He launched two different game companies, which turned into game-changing communications platforms (Flickr and Slack).
