A start-up is a painting that the artist "founder" tries to express to his audience. At times he's misunderstood, but there are times when the whole world appreciates and respects the artist's masterpiece....
I like to call this trope 'John Galt Wears a Beret'
Exactly the way I see things, I bet that most of people also think about it the same way... but it feels good to listen that from likeminded people :)
Go to 4:17 in the video to hear why Steve Blank thinks founders are artists.
Very interesting and informative. I'm not even entrepreneurially minded.
Thank you! I am happy to hear that. We're hoping these stories can be interesting and informative not only to founders, but for a general audience. And who knows, maybe you will be a founder someday?
