I set up a new place for me to put unformed thoughts and whatever the heck else I feel like adding without much explanation.  You can find it at quickpost.scotthurff.com — and I’m trying to figure out how to splice it into my feedburner feed.

How are you?  Are you reading?  Say something to show you’re alive.

You should build something.

You should build something as in…now.

I bet you $2,000,000,000 (that’s $2 billion of Monopoly money) that there’s something brewing in your head right now — like a service or a product or just doing something good for someone.

Build it.

I shared my “story” at Wake Forest the other day in John Abraham’s VC class.  It was pretty awesome; I played the part of “George” in an Apprentice board room mockup.  There were student groups who did presentations about mock investments to make.  Yep, I had fun.

But I was mostly happy to see that these people aren’t afraid to build something.  I can’t tell you how many times I was asked about an idea or current venture — and all things aside, I was the happiest that they were building it and not wondering.

Who cares if you screw up.  Dyson screwed up over 5,000 times.  Now he’s a billionaire. 

Get over the failure complex, be serious about something and go for it.

OK, rant over
