i like to think about lewis and clark a lot when i think of entrepreneurship. they set out, funded by jefferson, to find an all water passage to connect the united states to the pacific. what they found, was a bevy of new experiences, a host of new people, swaths of land that would someday become some of the most important parts of the united states, and no all water passages. that’s a great way of thinking about being an entrepreneur. set out with a goal, venture in to the darkness, keep at it, and – based on persistence alone – you will unearth a ton of wealth and bring value to the world around you.
