About this episode
We all need a place to play.
Kids need playgrounds and sandboxes. Musicians need an instrument. Mad scientists need a laboratory.
Those of us with business ideas? We need a company.
Not for the money, but because it’s our place to experiment, create, and turn thoughts into reality. We need to pursue our intrinsic motivation.
We have so many interesting ideas and theories. We need to try them!
The happiest people are not lounging on beaches. They’re engaged in interesting work!
Following curiosity is much more fun than being idle. Even if you never have to work a day in your life.
That’s the best reason to have a company. It’s your playground, your instrument, your laboratory. It’s your place to play!
Get the ideas out of your head and into the world.
