When Everyone Lies About Your Business Idea
Picture a young entrepreneur, eyes bright with possibility, explaining their revolutionary app idea to their mother over Sunday dinner. She beams with pride: "That's wonderful, honey! I'd definitely use that!" Six months and thousands of dollars later, the app launches to crickets. What happened? Mom lied-not maliciously, but because that's what people do when you ask them to judge your idea. This scenario plays out thousands of times daily in coffee shops and conference rooms worldwide. The painful truth is that most entrepreneurs are having completely useless conversations with potential customers, collecting compliments instead of insights, and mistaking politeness for validation. The real challenge isn't getting people to talk to you-it's learning how to extract truth from conversations where everyone's natural instinct is to be encouraging rather than honest.
