Tohle mi znovu mluvi z duse:
Basecamp was done almost entirely without risk. It was completely self-funded. We treated it as a side-product and a side-project until it could pay the bills. And only then did we make it the main focus of the company.
I absolutely hate risk. I think it’s a misnomer that entrepreneurs somehow are in love with risk and making big gambles and taking big bets. I think that’s probably true for some. It’s certainly not true for me. And I think it’s certainly not true for a large constituency of other successful entrepreneurs.
Tohle je presne zpusob jak je potreba delat startup kdyz clovek nema nadbytek vlastnich penez na rozhazovani. Zamerne rikam vlastnich. Ne penez cizich lidi nebo investoru. Rozjet to jako bokovku. Snazit se to delat jednoduse a kdyz vidim, ze to vydelava tak se do toho pustit na plno. Neni potreba delat nejaka obrovska gesta uplne na zacatku. Opoustet stale zamestnani, kdyz neni vubec nic jasne. Doufat, ze investor to nejak zaplati. Mnohem lepsi je dokazat si zorganizovat vlastni cas a rozjet projekt i za casovych a financnich omezeni, ktere mate. A kdyz uz je to jasnejsi, ze to bude fungovat, pak se do toho pustit naplno. To je cas kdy muzete vzit penize jinych lidi, investoru a opustit zamestnani.
Tohle neni rada pro zkusene borce co vi co delaji. Ale pro zacinajici podnikatele, kteri maji trosku problemy si zorganizovat i vlastni cas. A mysli si, ze muzou delat jen jednu vec. Dokazat neco rozjet s omezenymi prostredky je ta prava skola zivota. A je bez rizika.
