Skills Before Ideas - The Step Zero for Entrepreneurs
The big topics of this Simply Human Newsletter - Download our Book: Step Zero Before the Hustle
๐ Hey,
They say it takes a village to raise a child. Well, it turns out it takes a tribe to birth a book, too! Dr. Haruka Marufuji and I (Ivan), over a glass of wine (as is the custom in my small village), started reflecting on the rollercoaster of entrepreneurship. The mistakes, the lessons... Turns out, even when youโve studied human psychology, youโre still beautifully imperfect.
Our ๐ก๐ฒ๐ฉ๐จ๐ญ๐ก๐๐ฌ๐ข๐ฌย was (after an undefined number of glasses of wine๐ท): launching a business isn't about a brilliant idea. It's about executing that idea brilliantly. And that takes a certain mindset, a certain set of human skills... and ๐ข๐ญ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ฉ๐จ๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ข๐๐ฅ๐ ๐ญ๐จ ๐ฅ๐๐๐ซ๐ง ๐ญ๐ก๐๐ฆ ๐๐๐๐จ๐ซ๐ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ ๐๐๐ญ๐ฎ๐๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐ฅ๐๐ฎ๐ง๐๐ก ๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ข๐ง๐๐ฌ๐ฌ.

Funny thing is, with 12 minds shaping it, can we really claim paternity?
Maybe this book is more like a startup itself - a collective effort, fueled by passion and a shared vision.
Yes I want to congratulate the book contributors on this beautiful child (that we now have to raise it ๐คท) Agni Skafidas, Michel Heitzmann, Jorge Castellote, Zuleka Kaysan , Joshua Berry, Alei Hassanein, Mykola Takzey, Egils Boitmanis, Alec Corthay, and Treesha Swami
