To add to this analogy: you also spend that time learning how to run a burger joint. That’s not wasted time. Walk then run and all that.
If you can’t make a burger joint work, you can’t make a fancy restaurant work. Don’t fool yourself by thinking the problem was the menu and atmosphere.
I experienced a startup where a bunch of mechatronics grads built a product line of simple robots for research use. Simple hamburgers of robotics. Only after years of that did they dive into far more complicated markets. From my rank and file vantage, this felt simple and genius.
Great point. Spend time learning things that will put some fucking money in your pocket. Once you have financial independence then you can think about changing the fucking world.
