And thats exactly what drew me to entrepreneurship in the first place. I love learning about it. I have notebooks full of business plans, product ideas, silly problems I've tried to solve (how to monetize twitter anyone :) T-shirt ideas, marketing plans, brand strategies. Almost all of them unfinished.
I love the idea of putting a vision into action with the help of other people. But I understand I can't skip steps. You don't get to be at the top without showing you can bust your ass as a grunt.
Sometimes I think I should start a company and just hang a sign on the door saying "Problem solver."
Then tell people to name a problem and a price they'd pay to have it solved, and I'd call them when I've got it figured out. Seriously, its kind of a dream job.
