Boss or Be bossed

My colleague in camp always thinking about business idea so that he can start up a business when he leave the camp

but it is really hard to get good and original idea nowadays

Seriously what is not already out there?

Everything we can thought of there are already people doing it

Let take facebook as an example
Many programmers out there can say that this site can be done very easily
I am not kidding

the concept behind the site is simple
I even learn those in school

But the world world only one guy put it online and earn billions out of it

Maybe it is the way we all were brought up

In Singapore, our education system just doesn't put us in a pioneer mindset
where we are willing to venture into the big scary world out there

We all are so protected in such a way that we are comfortable working for someone else
Cause we know that the responsibility will not entirely fall on us if anything were to happen.

Of course there are still people willing to try out
but not all succeed

End up as a normal human you will weight the risk and find out working for other is so much safer

yes you have to suck it up some time

but still you are able to feed your family

So where do you stand?
