The end.

Today was our last NVP lecture. That postponed lecture that was postponed was postponed for today so we had it today. Today we learnt that engineers do actually come up with some good ideas every now and again, ah who am I kidding, I’m just jelly. The idea of the lean start up is what we dun dealt with today. That and the inherent success in failure, well when failure isn’t treated with too much respect that is.

The idea of the lean start up is pretty simple and name is pretty well suited. Keep things moving and keep them as barebones as possible and you have a better chance of success. Yeah I’m more interested in the successful failure part too.

My last post was about how certain I was that entrepreneurial ventures were to fail and how this was off putting to me. Well, turns out err’ybody fails at this game in the beginning and these failures only serve to teach you what it is that will work and what it is you should be doing. Failure in this game, and I am enjoying calling it a game (watching The Wire these days so excuse me), serves you better than an initial “sort of” success. It is likely that after failing a couple times your next effort(s) are going more well-rounded and likely to succeed. Succeed in large ways.
