Key takeaways

Entrepreneurship is a journey of learning

The biggest thing you need to do is believe in your ability to succeed. That’s the biggest obstacle.

Failing means you’re pushing hard. Failing means you’re learning.
When you’re curious about something, you ask questions. You don’t just sit back and take things for granted. You explore, experiment, and try different approaches. Curiosity also means being willing to explore new ideas, new ways of thinking, and new experiences. Entrepreneurship is a journey, and you need to be open to exploring new paths, new places, and new people.
In short, curiosity makes you better prepared for entrepreneurship.
