"The weeks that I do the best work or feel like I did the best work is every single night before I go to bed, I'm like, 'Ah, shit,'" Weinberg told investor Harry Stebbings during a recent episode of Stebbings' "20VC" podcast. Harvey is one of the hottest names in the closely-watched legal AI startup space."
""At Harvey, we have a value called Job's Not Finished and it's essentially just always holding yourself to a higher standard and believing we have an obligation to improve. I believe in progressive stress," Weinberg said in a statement to Business Insider. "If you consistently seek out the highest amount of stress it makes you better at the fastest rate possible, what stresses you out the first time doesn't stress you out as much the second so you have to keep raising the bar.""
