Founder's thoughts: Startups, according to Mozart!
A young composer once approached Mozart with a question: "How can I learn to write symphonies?"
Mozart replied, "You are young. Start with something simple, and work your way up to symphonies."
The composer protested, "But you wrote your first symphony when you were younger than I am now!"
Mozart calmly replied, "Yes, but I didn’t ask anyone how to do it."
Starting a business is a lot like writing a symphony.
You can read guides, follow advice, or study the greats — but at some point, the only thing that really matters is this: stop waiting for permission, stop collecting tips, and just start.
Your version might be messy or brilliant — but it has to be yours.
