Acknowledging Our Irrationality
Startups often fail due to irrational behaviors exhibited by both founders and their customers. People frequently make decisions that are not in their best interest, even when they recognize better alternatives. For instance, despite knowing that a daily meditation practice could significantly enhance their lives, many still fail to commit to it due to their inherent nature as 'idiots' in a lighthearted sense. This understanding of human irrationality is crucial for building a successful startup, as it requires founders to study this behavior and incorporate it into their strategic planning.
