This is a new one to me, and I like the suggestion:
“Make original mistakes.”
Someone (Brad? Wendy? I can’t remember) said this in a board meeting about a month ago. I wrote it down on a piece of paper and have been carrying it around with me ever since. The concept is right on and meaningful no matter what you do. … In short, don’t be afraid to make mistakes; just make sure they are original ones. [VC Adventure]
