So, you want to startup?
Original Post:http://www.mhonorato.com/want-to-startup/
All begins with an idea, a dream
Change the world?...
How do I start?
Ask for help maybe?
Do I start building something right away?
What kind of skills do I have to know?
Sharing what I have learn so far…
Start with WHY
Money, fame or power?...Wrong way buddy
Simon Sinek – “Start with why”
Bad Idea = -1
Weak Idea = 1
Regular Idea = 5
Good idea = 10
Great Idea = 15
Brilliant Idea = 20
No execution = $1
Weak Execution = $1000
Regular Execution = $10.000
Good Execution = $100.000
Great Execution = $1.000.000
Brilliant Execution = $10.000.000
“Ideas are cheap and abudant. Execution is everything”
Don’t fall in love with your idea!
Love the problem that your trying to solve
Your idea have to solve a specific problem
A painkiller to a daily “headache”
“Life is to shor to build things that nobody wants”–Ash Maurya
Create a “persona” profile
Start working with 20 of them. Get to know them perfectly!
Persona profile
Define this parameters
Start testing!
Validations, validations
And more Validations
“There are no facts inside the building, so get the heck outside!” -Steve Blank”
Build a Mockup befor the MVP
Don’t waste money or resource, be creative!
A napkin is more than perfect to start
Feedback is the fuel to everyday work
Never stop asking for it!
Nobody is gonna steal your idea!
Don’t worry for that…Is worth 0
Building your team?...Ask you this
If you die tomorrow will they continue your vision?
Don't worry if you fail
Worry about getting up again, again and again!
“There is no failure, justFeedback and learning”
“When you grow up you, tend to get told that the world is the way it is and your life is just to live your life inside the world, try not to bash into the walls too much, try to have a nice family, have fun, save a little money. That’s a very limited life. Life can be much broader, once you discover one simple fact, and that is that everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you. And you can change it, you can influence it, you can build your own things that other people can use. Once you learn that, you’ll never be the same again.
Most people never pick up the phone, most people never ask. And that’s what separates, sometimes, the people that do things from the people that just dream about them. You gotta act. And you gotta be willing to fail… if you’re afraid of failing, you won’t get very far.”
Hope it helps!
