following a discussion we had a few weeks ago:) The question I asked is one dear to my heart as many people know me will tell you, as I am always asking people and myself:)
The day I was asked what motivates me and I didn’t have an answer
A few months ago I took an hour long call with an entrepreneur and angel investor. The call had no specific agenda, but is the kind of thing I try to do as a way of establishing sources and for background on future stories. In fact, the angel investor was doing that slightly annoying thing of calling from his car during the long commute home.
We discussed a range of topics, from how he became an angel investor, how he was going to make a decent chunk of money, the startups and entrepreneurs he was bullish about (and those he wasn’t), and industry contacts we shared in common.
However, the part of our conversation I remember the most was when he suddenly turned the tables and asked: “What motivates you, Steve?”.
