So that means...
Most entrepreneurs fail and they end up only doing the things they are good at because they focus on how to do something, not on what needs to be done.
And I can give several examples of that.
So, for example, if you want to live on Venus, right?
You don't focus on how am I going to do that.
You focus on what are the problems that have to be solved.
You have to leave Earth orbit, number one.
You have to go from Earth orbit to Venus orbit.
You have to land on Venus.
And number four, you have to create a habitat on Venus, right?
And then you see which problems are already solved, which are incrementally, and what is the one big thing that needs to be solved that I can focus on, right?
And that really is you break down the problems into smaller chunks and then you start focusing on how to solve each problem rather than figuring out how to solve this big problem.
The second is you have to understand, are you solving the root cause of the problem or are you solving the symptom of the problem?
And this is another place where entrepreneurs fail, right?
They look at something and say, oh my God, that's the problem.
And they focus on solving this and some other entrepreneur comes along and solves the root cause and the symptom just disappears.
And that is a fundamental way of learning when something is a symptom versus something is a root cause.
So for example, if you look at the freshwater and third world countries, people die because they don't have access to freshwater.
And you start focusing on that and say, I'm going to build a nanostraw that you can drink water from.
And that is going to help so many people get freshwater.
