<\/a>Yesterday, one of my friends (founder) asked why I don’t start easier ventures? <\/span>The reason relates to the framing (and re-framing) of the challenge: No matter what I think about, it has been my experience that the leap-frogging steps of a disruption are nearly always seen as impossible\/hard to comprehend . . .\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

. . . (and in this, it appears not so much that the barrier is a belief in the “impossibility”, but that the person cannot intellectually follow or comprehend how I got there and ego seems to get in the way).<\/span><\/p>\n

So, if whatever I do is seen this way, then (<\/span>perhaps <\/span>paradoxically)<\/span> it <\/span> makes more sense to me to do the biggest scariest monster. <\/span><\/p>\n

Because this takes exactly the same effort as the apparently-most-possible of the allegedly impossible.<\/span><\/p>\n

Not to mention massively satisfying.<\/span><\/p>\n
