G Fat, co-founder and president of V Society, recently spoke in an interview with YouTuber Zalkar Saliev about his views on “how to succeed”. He pointed out that building a relationship of trust and open communication is more important than blindly “following passion”.
“The strategy I suggest is: make sure you surround yourself with people you trust, people who can communicate transparently, and then think with them about how to keep getting better.” He emphasized that in complex project cooperation and business operations, a reliable team and real feedback are far more valuable than empty enthusiasm.
Regarding the popular concept of “following your passion”, G Fat has reservations. He noted that as plausible as it sounds, many of those who followed the passion ended up “falling into the pit.” He emphasized that passion is important, but success requires calm judgment and strategic support.
In addition, G Fat also mentioned the problem of “survivor bias”. For example, he said that some successful people may attribute their success to accidental habits or behaviors, such as “wearing a yellow shirt”, but this is only correlation, not real causation.
As a PC gaming platformSteamThe creator of “Half-Life” and “Portal”, and the driving force behind well-known works such as “Half-Life” and “Portal”, G Fat’s perspective provides a rational and pragmatic direction for game developers and entrepreneurs. He called on people to learn from successful experiences and take into account their own actual situation and walk out of their own development path.
