“Self-discovery” might be a 20th-century bug

from *“Yesterday, I Went to Mars ♡”* · host MakotowillOlympusMons

This episode looks at an idea shared by Marc Andreessen—that great entrepreneurs don’t spend much time on introspection.He suggests that instead of looking back and analyzing past decisions, many successful founders focus on what they can do now and simply move forward. In uncertain environments like startups, decisions are rarely perfect, and progress often comes from acting, adjusting, and continuing.Of course, reflection still has its place, especially for learning and maintaining good judgment. But doing too much of it before taking action can slow things down.In the end, the question may not be whether we reflect enough, but whether we are moving forward.
