I think the most underrated quality of all is being really determined. This is more important than being smart.
The hardest thing about starting a company is the level and the frequency of bad stuff that happens to you. And most people that are good in really other ways eventually just get killed, the company gets killed, by stuff going wrong.
so much about being a successful entrepreneur is just not giving up.
Another thing that really matters that is non-obvious is independent thought. And this I think is an even more unusual skill than determination.
You want startup ideas-- if you picture a Venn diagram, and here you have is a good idea, and here you have sounds like a bad idea, you want that tiny little overlap.
all of the really good startups have really important missions. Eventually, they figure it out. They may not have it on day one, but they eventually get to this, like, missionary mindset.
you've got to build something that some people really love. And after failing, because of insufficiently determined founders, this is the number two reason that startups that seem really good otherwise fail.
the piece of advice that people later say they wish they had listened to is that it is very easy to get sucked into a path in life.
