Why There Is No Downside In Going For It: A Practical Guide – James Tayler – MicroConf Starter 2018

Should I quit my job and go all in? What if it doesn't work? What will people think of me if I fail? Should I go solo or seek out a co-founder? These are all questions we ask ourselves while trying to come to terms with risk. Being an entrepreneur is fraught with risk and with the upside comes the downside and it pays to have a solid frame of reference on the two. For example, If you have $100 and you lose 50% to get back to $100 again from $50 you need to make back 100%. Risk is asymmetric and as they say, "knowing is half the battle." In this talk you will learn: • Why 90% of businesses fail and why its completely irrelevant. • What you risk by staying in a 9-5 and what you risk by leaving it. • 7 powerfully simple strategies you can apply in your every day life to help you navigate the risks you face as a budding entrepreneur. And along the way James will share with you his personal anecdotes such as: • The soul crushingly embarrassing story of how he lost $30,000 in venture capital at 20 years old and what he would do differently now at age 30. • The reason he decided against buying an established sushi restaurant and what happened to the guy that did. • What happens when you max your girlfriends credit cards to go all in on bitcoin without telling her and what happens when you don't. This talk will help you unlock a very simple and powerful approach to risk and give you the confidence to risk it for the biscuit!
