1. The awakening: Realizing that you have new insights.
Every entrepreneur starts by accepting the reality that you have a rare mindset of joy of discovery, with an intense curiosity about how certain things or people work, or why a new technology hasn’t yet been accepted.
2. The shift: Breaking away from dreaming to action.
This stage is where I see the most people stuck. It’s hard to make that first step from talking to actually doing.

3. The place: Finding a community where you can thrive.
Everyone needs a place with the right people, connections, and environment to nourish your dreams. An occasional discussion with a mentor won’t do it. You need to feel the passion of others in the same stage. This place is often called an incubator or accelerator, or just a group of peers.
