"chip" on your shoulder be?

25:25: Pattern Recognition and Burn-out

38:59: When starting a company is like getting up behind
a slow water ski-boat on one ski — It's going to happen, but you are likely to suffer along the way.

driven and passionate. What's more important early on?

"seed" capital, debt, etc. Also, looking back, "are there any
