Serial Entrepreneurs Probably Think Like This
While I aspire to be a serial entrepreneur, I’m not old enough to be considered serial per-se. What is interesting is the way the mind of a serial entrepreneur is wired. Robert Scoble (via his twitter feed) pointed me to this blog entry which I thought was pretty interesting. Not just because the experiences of Seth Godin are valuable to learn from, but also because it’s insightful to see his mind works. For someone who clearly has a lot of experience generating new businesses from ideas floating through his head, it’s interesting to see some of the process he has used to create those new businesses. Also interesting is the insight he gives on parsing what must be hundreds of new ideas each year. He has a process for selecting the winners, dumping the losers and moving forward. Idea filtering is a skill that successful serial entrepreneurs have and hopeful serials need to learn.
