Michael Saylor, co-founder of Strategy Inc.

(NASDAQ:MSTR), recently noted that the world is an extremely competitive place, and even those who are successful have to keep grinding to hold on to what they’ve achieved.

Be Wary of People Who Have Nothing to Lose, Warns Saylor During an interview at the BTC Prague conference on June 17, Saylor said that being smart and simply doing what’s optimal is not enough.

He added that the world is full of "hyper genius" people who have "nothing to lose" and "everything to gain." The Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) bull argued that this cohort is prepared to put in extra effort and take bigger risks to be successful.

Saylor warned people who believe god made them smarter and that they therefore no longer need to work as hard.
