It means the mission matters more than the misfit. My grandparents pulled me out of the gutter and taught me 1 thing: speak the truth and fight for justice, even if it costs your life. A life without freedom is not a life. That is the mission. The misfit part is just the delivery system. Kicked out of football, expelled from university, a foster kid, later told I had 6 to 12 months to live. I kept the receipt. Now I say what I see to world leaders, boardrooms, and Big Tech CEOs, because nobody pays me to be quiet. The world runs on 5% entrepreneurs. I would love to help contribute to doubling that to 10%, maybe even 15% towards 2050. Millions of misfits turned into a force for good, technology that empowers people instead of controlling them, and a cleaner, brighter, fairer planet we imagine first and build second. 55,000+ fellow misfits are already on it.
