After all these years as a successful (sometimes) entrepreneur, do you want to know what I still struggle with the most? I can’t keep it simple. Ever. I break this cardinal rule of business constantly, without remorse. Whether it’s my posts or my emails or my plans or my experiments, it takes every bit of restraint I have not to write manifestos or to build the kinds of systems that would make Rube Goldberg wince.

Over the last couple of weeks, I had a bunch of first calls with entrepreneurs to discuss their ventures. It struck me that most of them immediately jumped into the 'what', explaining the product they are building, instead of focusing first on the 'why', the problem they are solving. By doing so, they force those listening to figure out the big picture challenge they are solving themselves. Not only will those listening be distracted by that looming 'why' question, they might also come up with the wrong answer to that question, and get lost.
