RE: Negativity Breeds Negativity

in Reflectionslast year

Thanks for sharing this @cmplxty ,been expecting your awesome writeup

the main difference between entrepreneurs and everyone else is this When most people encounter an annoying problem, they figure out how to avoid it. When entrepreneurs encounter an annoying problem, they figure out how to break it.

That’s exactly what led me to start a business. I had a really frustrating experience buying homeowners insurance. The process took hours and demanded me to fill out long forms that asked me questions whose answers were openly available. I knew there had to be a better way, given the technology currently available.

I ’m agitated and amped by what we ’re doing at Kin. We're making a big difference in our clients ’ lives. We ’re saving them a lot of time and frustration. But at the same time, I ’ve noticed a trend( particularly in Silicon Valley and particularly among a certain type of founder) of startups that do n’t make sense. They do n’t break a real problem or they produce more problems than they break.

That’s great I’m glad that you started your own business! That’s a crucial thing these days, as small businesses are now the world economy is able to sustain itself. We do not need more amazon or Google companies, we need more companies like yours and the one we started ourselves. Those are the ways that financial safety is maintained! We tend to support other small businesses and it’s a great cycle of positivity all around!
