Inter:views | Cracking The Entrepreneur Bottleneck

The truth is we do have the ability to truly listen. 

But, listening is a skill. And like any skill, you need to learn it, then practice it to get better at it. 

So how well do you listen? 

My guess is: you can always improve.

There’s a difference between thinking you know and knowing. 

I can hear your argument. 

I’m an entrepreneur, if I was listening to all people who told me I couldn’t do it, I would never have started. 

I need to trust my guts, I know some things feel right.

Absolutely. Listening to your guts you should. Some things do feel right. 

But there’s a difference between following your intuitions and using data to make an informed decision to confirm it. 

And the problem is too often we don’t make informed decisions because we want to go too fast.

Entrepreneurship is like watering a plant. First you don’t see too much progress, but if you persist, if you continue to do it properly, feed it, take proper measures to make sure it’s growing strong, eventually the plant will blossom, and you will yield results.

Slow is smooth. Smooth is fast.

I’ve interviewed more than 100 of them on my podcast Inter:views, Cracking The Entrepreneurship Code. 

When they talk about entrepreneurship, they invariably use the same words and expressions.

Impact or purpose are 2 of the words that come back the most often. 

Entrepreneurs are driven by impact.

There are many ways to make an impact: opening a social enterprise, focusing on a good cause, solving a painful problem for people as well as treating employees, clients and suppliers correctly. 

It always begins with finding a sense of purpose. Japanese people talk about Ikigai. 

The question is: Why are you doing whatever it is you are doing?

On the occasion of the 100th episode, I wanted to celebrate senior entrepreneurs. 

Paul Tasner is the co-Founder & CEO of PulpWorks Inc., which he founded 11 years ago at the age of 66 after working for other people for 40 years! 

If you do the calculation, it gives you an idea of Paul’s age today! 

PulpWorks turns garbage into safe, planet-friendly products.

Paul has also been a TED resident since 2017. His TED Talk How I Became an Entrepreneur At 66 has had 2.4m views and counting. 

We talk about why he moved into entrepreneurship, why senior entrepreneurs have a higher rate of success than younger ones, and he shares the lessons he’s learned throughout his 50 years of business experience. 

There’s no age to re-invent yourself.
