“Every moment in business happens only once”
— Peter Thiel
Simplified Meaning:
Each event in business is unique and won't happen again in exactly the same way. Imagine you're at a market and you see a fantastic deal on fresh fruit. If you don't buy it now, you might not get the same price or quality next time. Similarly, in business, opportunities come and go, and if you miss one, it might not come back. A company launching a new product, for example, has only one chance to make a great first impression. If they fail, they can't redo that exact moment. This teaches us to act swiftly and thoughtfully when opportunities arise, because the same chance might never appear again. Taking advantage of these moments can be the difference between success and failure.
