Founders still shouting "achieving $1 billion in revenue" need to update their mindset. A billion is no longer a milestone; it's just an entry ticket. The real question is: how to reach a trillion scale? From 2015 to now, the rules of the game have completely changed. What you need to surpass is not a numeric goal, but a fundamental shift in scale perception. This is the dividing line that determines how far a project can go.

Ha, a billion dollars? What era are those dreams from? Talking about that now is really a bit outdated.

It's rolled up, a billion is really just the starting point. Talking about this number now is a bit outdated.

A billion? Haha, that's really just the warm-up stage. --- Trillions of dreams are still worth pursuing, but don't get stuck on the number ten billion. --- From 2015 to now, it's truly been two different worlds. Without upgrading your cognitive framework, no matter how much money you have, it's useless. --- That's right, many founders are still stuck in the mindset of 2018. --- The real moat is the shift in scale thinking—that really hits the point. --- Is a billion just the entry fee? How many times does it need to grow? That's a bit crazy. --- The rules have changed so many times; if you can't keep up, you're out. It's harsh but the truth.
