So, why did you start your startup? Was it for money, fame, freedom, by accident, for adventure, something else? I'm curious to hear any details you might want to share. Thanks!
So, in a sense, it would be "for adventure", the learning is incredible, even with failure on this field, would be a essential step I had to had if I come back to my original field of work (non-profit, social impact, social business, etc).
Sure, I dream about fame and money, but I dream about being a great soccer player. These dreams are a way to fantasize the consequences of what I am doing, no the reason behind it.
A year later, we realized it didn't affect the masses in the way we would have hoped.
My answer on "Why did you END your startup" would probably be much more insightful and informative. I think I'll throw that question up myself!
