When Lightning Strikes: The Real Reason to Start
Why does anyone start a company? Most business books will tell you to ask yourself if you can handle rejection, work hundred-hour weeks, or survive on ramen noodles. But here's the thing-none of that matters if you're chasing the wrong thing. The only question worth asking is simpler and more profound: Do you want to make meaning? Not money. Not fame. Not even success. Meaning. This distinction isn't semantic wordplay. Companies born from meaning-whether it's righting a wrong, improving lives, or preventing something good from disappearing-possess a gravitational pull that profit-chasing ventures never achieve. Think about it this way: defeating your competition might get you out of bed, but empowering others to create something beautiful keeps you awake at night in the best possible way. The shift from "beating IBM" to "empowering entrepreneurs" isn't just evolution-it's transformation. And here's the liberating truth: even if your venture fails, you'll have failed doing something worthwhile rather than chasing empty returns. Once you've identified your meaning, distill it into a mantra-not a mission statement bloated with corporate jargon, but three words that capture your essence. Then stop planning and start building. The enemy of great beginnings isn't lack of resources; it's overthinking.
