Experience is valuable, and storytelling is crucial for a founder to attract talent and investment. Great engineers are not as rare as great ideas, and the ability to articulate a compelling story around an idea is critical. Technical aptitude is important, but the capability to attract talent to a problem and build a team is more vital.

Finding real problems that people are motivated to solve is the essence of startup success and life in general.
