Idea Selection⁠↗
Highlights
I’m of the camp that unpursued ideas are worth zero dollars. (Maybe less than zero, since they are occuyping brain space.)
The first milestone an entrepreneur must hit in purusing an idea is to get talented people to join you in building the idea, and spending consistent notable time working on the idea with you for free.
If you can’t convince a talented person to work with you for free, it indicates one of two problems. Either the idea is not compelling enough, or, you are not compelling enough as a cofounder. :(
If the idea is not compelling enough for people to put in real hours for free, the idea is not worth pursuing.
