If we want every car on the road to be a Lyft, we need to make it incredibly convenient for drivers.
-
Our goal was never to create a better taxi.
-
Our vision for the world is making car ownership unnecessary.
-
There's a misconception that Lyft is just a better version of the taxi. You know, I think that's just scratching the surface of what we're doing.
-
I start every day reviewing priorities, prepping for meetings, and getting updated on key projects.
-
When you are talking about transportation, people aren't making their plans while in front of a computer.
-
Particularly when it comes to the regulatory environment, being a jerk doesn't actually get you very far.

When you're starting a company, almost anything that can go wrong will go wrong, and it will probably look like and feel like you made the absolute wrong decision to start the company. If you're not absolutely determined to solve a problem or see something through, it might not make sense to keep going.
-
We want Lyft to meet your needs, whether going out to a nice date or event and want a nicer car, or if you're just trying to get to work every day and need something affordable.

We're learning a lot from large international competitors... As we go international, we're looking to add something unique to the market. And so when we do go international, it won't just be as a taxi service.

I try to block a couple of hours of unscheduled time every day so that I can work on the day's most important projects.
-
I really admire Airbnb as a pioneer of the sharing economy and for building community. They've found an elegant way to help hosts make more money and for guests to have authentic experiences. It brings those people together in a unique way.
-
To get to the office every day, I either take a Lyft or have my wife drop me off. It's about a 15-minute drive from my house to the office.
-
We created Lyft because we want to establish a radically different concept of personal transportation. We want people to think of transportation as a service enabled by technology instead of as an expensive and large piece of hardware to own.
-
Every mom in a minivan, every person commuting - anytime they are on the road, they should be able to go into driver mode and give a ride to a neighbor. That's how we achieve scale.
-
Mobile forced us to rethink the user experience and do something people would be able to carry out on in a couple of seconds on the mobile phone. By stripping out all the work the user used to do and putting that on the company, we were able to create a much better user experience.

Our goal was to completely change transportation. Change traffic. And make it possible to get anywhere you want to go without owning a car.
