Most people never start because they want something.

Simon Squibb says that is the problem. Wanting is not enough. You have to need it.

In this Founder Classic episode of Screw It Just DO It, Simon explains the single mindset shift that has driven every successful business he has built, invested in, or watched succeed. Turn your want into a need. And once you have done that, learn the three things that will multiply your luck: take more risk, know your destination, and never stop.

Simon went from homeless at 15 to building and selling his agency Fluid to PwC. He has invested in 76 businesses. He has 23 million followers. And he believes that entrepreneurs, not politicians, are the ones who will fix the world.

This is a tight, single-lesson episode. One idea. Applied properly, it changes everything.

Key Takeaways

• How to turn a want into a need and why it changes your behaviour immediately

• The three-part formula for luck: risk, destination, and persistence

• Why leaning into fear is a superpower, not a weakness
