Great lecture - one of the best so far IMO.
Great lecture - one of the best so far IMO. From the comments, it looks like a lot of people are struggling with this one because Reid Hoffman was (absolutely) lacking in specific, concrete advice. I think it's missing Reid's point -- everyone here is either (well, likely) thinking about founding something, or well on their way. When he poses his questions, I think that he's trying to help us reflect on where we are, and how we can tackle the hazy questions (flexible v. persistent, short term v. long term, etc.) that will drive our decisions. This midway course lecture isn't about giving lessons -- it's about helping us to reflect.
