BRX Pro Tip: Zero to 1 is Hard
Stone Payton: [00:00:00] Welcome back to Business RadioX Pro Tips. Lee Kantor and Stone Payton here with you. Lee, what’s your take, advice, counsel, wisdom on trying to get something off the ground, man, in the early stages?
Lee Kantor: [00:00:14] Well, going from 0 to 1 is super difficult and it’s much more difficult than I think people realize.
Lee Kantor: [00:00:22] Something that I read recently really kind of brought this home to me. Homo sapiens have been around for 300,000 years. The Wright brothers first flight was in 1903. We landed on the moon in 1969. And Voyagers 1 and 2 are currently 14 billion miles from Earth and have passed both Jupiter and Saturn. So, think about that. It took 300,000 years to get to version 1.0 of flight that got us off the ground safely. In the next hundred years, we have been able to safely travel deep into space. That boggles the mind.
Lee Kantor: [00:01:07] So, when you’re creating something from nothing, you have to give yourself some grace. The first version will take the longest, but progress will move faster once that first version has been done well.
