      This list seems so good that it's worth asking what life is the opposite of what it describes, so that you can avoid it. The opposite would be working for a large organization dominated by bureaucracy and politics.

          People hoping to create large organizations (i.e. ambitious startup founders) should probably spend some time thinking about how not to create the worst possible environment for thinking.

          Is there a reality where people with the means invest in emerging projects that aim not to be unicorns as mediums for exit strategies but for positive impact through empowerment business models? Most startups that get support seem to "innovate"in the most conventional ways.
