As a startup founder/co-founder, how do you avoid wishful thinking and self-deception?
HOW TO GO FROM WISHFUL THINKING TO PROFITABLE THINKING
- Dream a lot but be realistic. Every idea I have sounded like a winner in my head but I have learned to bounce them off some trusted people who then show me where they lack and that is ok as it forces me to let go of that idea or vastly improve it.
- Focus more on taking action and getting your ideas off the ground then just having good ideas. This will force you to be a doer, not a dreamer.
