Starting Up With No Handlebars
I heard this song Handlebars (by Flobots) a few weeks ago, but I just came across it again online. This song can mean whatever you interpret it as. However, it begins with a childhood dream that they could do anything you want. It starts with easy concepts such as riding a bike and writing in comic books. Then, as a teenager, one starts thinking he can change the world, and starts thinking about important career moves. However, as the “do anything you want” mentality continues, factors such as politics, social responsibility and power start playing in.
Though this video is too cynical to be related to startups, I started to realize what great responsibilities entrepreneurs have. Founders are free to do whatever they feel is right in order to change the world.
