What Do People Misunderstand About Being An Entrepreneur?

A lot of people think there’s a clear cut path to do a startup, when in reality there are so many ways to do it. You can take 5 years or a few days to get your product to blow up. You can win on marketing or tech – there’s no “one” way.

Additionally, you’ll get lots of advice along the way, and you may feel all of it’s important.

Don’t get me wrong, there are a lot of people who can give you great advice, but my rule is, take 5% of it. The other 95% you should absolutely scrap.

Now, I can’t tell you what the good 5% is – it’s for you to figure out, but that’s the beauty of it, and successful founders are the ones who can differentiate.
