The Best Time to Start a New Company
Starting a new company requires a deep understanding of one's capabilities and a strong foundation. The speaker emphasizes the importance of being part of successful companies to learn and grow as a manager, rather than prematurely starting a new venture. It is crucial to identify one's strengths and weaknesses before deciding to launch a startup. Joining a growing company with a solid team and idea can be more beneficial than starting a new company without a clear vision or adequate resources. The speaker highlights the risk of talented individuals starting ventures without proper guidance, leading to inefficiencies and wasted potential. Building valuable solutions for people should be the focus, rather than pursuing entrepreneurship for the sake of being a founder.
