I was just listening to the audiobook from Peter Thiel this weekend Zero-to-One and have been rethinking myself this whole growth-hacker mindset that some of us have. It is mostly like focusing on short-term wins to gain a particular goal (profits, traction, something to show investors, etc) rather than focusing on the long term benefits you are building toward, and the decisions we make everyday to achieve the hockey-stick growth numbers could very well hinder the long term impact our products have in the world.

This was a good read in general. I appreciate their candor.
