Have you ever set/pursued real life goals? Not joke ones or fakes you make up for a workshop exercise. I haven’t. I’ve only: a) picked among opportunities (50%) b) stirred the pot to create new opportunities (30%) c) allowed random play to snowball into bigger thing (20%)

You apply to a bunch of jobs, get a few interviews, a couple of offers, pick one. That’s response to opportunities. You decide you’re going to get to Mars or prove the Poincaré conjecture with no clear sense of whether there’s an opportunity to do so. That’s a goal.

Decided to start a company during college based on argument from my friend "we will never have better access to intellectual capital or more risk tolerance than now". Does that count?
