Today I just realised the importance of having a good team. I would rather work with my friends over strangers anytime. It's strange how one meeting/discussion can change everything. All thanks to my phone batt almost dying and I need to use the GPS to drive back home =DD I was this close to quitting the team of Rainmakers. What was supposed to be a fun project was treated as work which just makes it all the more tiring. You just gotta love what you do. And most importantly, you gotta love your team members too. =) In my 2 months here, I feel that the way silicon valley works is that people here invest in other people. Which is why y-combinator scrutinizes team member before investing in them. All in all, learning about terms like vested interest, dilution, the story of how facebook founder mark zuckerberg changed the startup world in terms of the amount of power investors hold over the startup as well as how one of the bigger Venture capitalist have and cannot invest in facebook as told in kah hong's words is really interesting. I love hearing stories of how entrepreneurs start their own business =)) I am now more motivated than ever after the downside the past few days. =) Maybe I should start blogging about the experiences I have learnt and share with the world =D
