Editor's Notes
- Baseline definition.
- Ben Franklin was the ultimate entrepreneur.
- Many examples of entrepreneurship.
- Problem solving is at core of entrepreneurship.
- The future is not inevitable. You get to problem solve.
- Side benefit #1: entrepreneurship makes you happy.
- Side benefit #2: entrepreneurship lets you work with people you love.
- Side benefit #3: entrepreneurship can enable a short commute.
- Plus: with commoditization of education, you need to differentiate yourself.
- No one has any idea what he/she is doing in the beginning; don’t be fooled.
- In the beginning you’re going to be bad at it.
- Creativity stems from hard work. You need role models.
- Paul Graham says: make what people want.
- I was working on a serious startup. People “loved” it. People lie.
- This is what real desire looks like.
- Pick a field with people you love.
- Suffering is everywhere.
- Big markets.
- Renewable energy hasn’t been ideal structurally because batteries have tended to lag generation technology.
- Given new sensors and government programs, healthcare structure is good today for entrepreneurship.
- One example that design solves well: pills.
- Pill Pack is a brilliant design solution.
