Why I think entrepreneurs seem arrogant
I think the apparent arrogance of a lot of entrepreneurs makes more sense when you realize what they’re trying to do.
It’s not that they think they’re always right. Or that they’re better than everyone else. Or even that they’re the right people to start a company.
It’s that they’re willing to try again and again.
To get it wrong, learn, and try again.
Until one day, even if it’s just once, they’re right. They’re the right person. And they manage to do something better than everyone else.
Because that’s the beautiful thing about building a company.
You only have to get it right once.
