I received this question in an email a few days ago. What are three things I should focus on now to have a successful web startup? My answer was pretty short.
Hi XXXX, This is easy.
1. Get a plan - Figure out what problem you’re going to solve.
2. Start building it - don’t wait to learn, or until the plan is perfect.
3. Iterate - learn from mistakes, do more of what works.
Get going.
So why don’t more people start companies? I think Shoemoney has it right. Fear of Failure. I have to say, I can’t stand failure, and thus far I refuse to fail. I consider the iterations we have gone through as the educational process. Just because we try things that don’t work well, doesn’t mean it’s a failure. So what is failure? Failure is not trying. Failure is giving up. All of the rest is a great education. And. Remember. There’s no better way to learn than by doing.
