"No problem is too small or too trivial if we can really do something about it."
This part tells us to keep solving whatever comes in our way. In today's world, most successful start-ups don't always succeed with their first idea, but rather an iteration of it.
Good advice! Thanks!
- _craft 12y agoI hear this a lot, but I'm not convinced that most successful companies pivot. Is there any data to back this up?
- Retric 12y agoMicrosoft made a huge pivot fairly early. Apple, did a small pivot that was arguably a course correction. Nintendo did a major piviot later on. Which I think is more telling. The odds that your first idea is perfect is small. Recognizing when you have a better option is important.
- tedsanders 12y agoLike _craft asked, is there data that most successful companies pivot? Mentioning 2-3 successful pivots does give great insight into whether pivoting successfully is common. :) (But as long as we're listing successful pivots, Intel is one of the most famous pivots out there.)
