@sama like driving a car?
Replying to @sama
@sama true. But why? Driven by gut and without self-doubt or inhibitions? Or because failing is fine on first try so no fear?
Replying to @sama
@sama Does that not contradict what most investors look for in founders, i.e. a history of expertise in an area?
Replying to @sama
@sama depends on what the something is, no?

@sama I've seen & experienced this in climbing. Sent or almost send the route, subsequent tries not as good.
