    I love what one of the participants said: "Something's broken that you wanna fix, or because something doesn't exist that you think should exist." Most old-school business people talk about how there MUST be a PROBLEM to solve for there to be a business! Wrong. It doesn't need to be a problem to solve in order to create a business. An opportunity in not necessarily the same thing as solving a problem.

    27:20 "the only rational thing is to throw in the towel.Everyone around me told me that that was going to be the case.But what made me not throw in the towel was that I realized that if I threw in the towel now I will never be able to forgive myself.I will always asking myself "What if I hadn't thrown in the towel?".
    So I decided I am going all the way to the absolute point where there is no hope whatsoever that this is going to be successful. THEN I know for sure I've done everthing that I can"

    Becoming an entrepreneur is all about perceived risk. If you find that the value of the security of a guaranteed job is lower than the price differential created by the value you attribute to the firm versus the wage you receive, then you should be starting your own company. Because a company can only hire you if the value you bring to the firm is higher than the wage you receive. For some, they're okay with that. For entrepreneurs, starting a company is the only logical thing to do.

    I always though that the idea was worth more than 1%. May be because ideas are all I have. It ma not be just 1% but I am willing to accept it has a low importance as I have not been able to execute any of my ideas in the last 6 years of my active struggle to go n do it for my self.
