Why still do lean startup ?

A map even if incorrect comforts

A “How” approach that feels scientific

“Cost of learning” for entrepreneurs is asymmetric

Map is not the elixir to yearn

Skills increase odds in the voyage

Skills build only by taking the voyageWith or without the map.

Maps reduce the cost of learning but not increase the odds
