Lots of&nbsp;customers need decks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then again, plenty of construction small business owners build decks.&nbsp;Choose&nbsp;that route and with time and effort you might not get rich&#8230;&nbsp;but the odds are good you can make a decent living.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>High variance.<\/strong>&nbsp;Think of this as the outlier path.&nbsp;Choose to do what few people have successfully done,&nbsp;and you might \u2013 just might \u2013 become extraordinarily successful.&nbsp;(<a href=\"https:\/\/incafrica.com\/library\/jeff-haden-the-only-way-to-get-really-really-rich\">And rich<\/a>, if that&#8217;s your goal).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mark Zuckerberg&nbsp;is a good example of the high variance path. Instead of taking a low variance approach and say, starting a web design business, he launched a new and unproven venture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The odds of success in that high variance approach&nbsp;were naturally extremely&nbsp;low,&nbsp;but in his case the upside&nbsp;turned out to be&nbsp;astronomically high.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sounds great.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At least for the Zuckster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Starting a Business With High Variance<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Facebook founder isn&#8217;t just a high variance outlier. He&#8217;s also a good example of survivor bias,&nbsp;focusing&nbsp;on people or things that &#8220;survived&#8221; while overlooking those that did not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take Ryan Gosling. He dropped out of high school when he was 17 and moved to LA to pursue acting. It worked spectacularly well for him, but what about the thousands of kids who drop out and move to southern California in hopes of making it? Do they all become movie stars?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But you never hear about them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The same is true for Steve Jobs. Jobs&nbsp;dropped out of Reed College so he could &#8220;drop in&#8221; on classes that interested him. It worked for the Apple co-founder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Maybe&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/incafrica.com\/article\/jeff-haden-46-years-ago-this-forgotten-apple-co-founder-left-an-estimated-75-billion-on-table\">not so well&nbsp;for this forgotten Apple co-founder&nbsp;who arguably left $75 billion on the table<\/a>.) But what about the countless&nbsp;people&nbsp;who don&#8217;t finish college? Do&nbsp;they all become billionaires?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But you never hear about them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That&#8217;s why\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/michaelshermer\">Michael Shermer<\/a>,\u00a0the author and publisher of\u00a0<em>Skeptic<\/em>\u00a0magazine, says\u00a0advice on high variance\u00a0success distorts perceptions\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.scientificamerican.com\/article\/how-the-survivor-bias-distorts-reality\/\">by ignoring all the businesses and college dropouts who failed<\/a>. And why university of Waterloo\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/carminegallo\/2012\/12\/06\/high-tech-dropouts-misinterpret-steve-jobs-advice\/#75c70ef25ad4\">professor Larry Smith says,\u00a0<\/a>referring to Jobs:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>&#8220;And what about &#8216;John Henry&#8217; and the 420,000 other people who tried ventures and failed? It&#8217;s a classic case of survivor bias.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>&#8220;We make judgments about what we should do based on the people who survived, totally ignoring all the guidance from the people who failed.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The problem with survivor bias is that it doesn&#8217;t really indicate whether a particular strategy or&nbsp;technique, or&nbsp;plan will work \u2013 and&nbsp;specially whether it will work for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow Vuori founder Joe Kudla&#8217;s blueprint and you probably won&#8217;t build a business valued at $4 billion.&nbsp;Practice guitar like Metallica&#8217;s&nbsp;Kirk Hammett and you probably won&#8217;t be the lead guitarist in the most successful heavy metal band ever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take the high variance approach by basing your plans \u2013 or your expectations of success \u2013 on a blueprint that worked for an outlier and the potential outcome may be extraordinarily high. But&nbsp;so will your level of&nbsp;risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That&#8217;s neither a bad&nbsp;nor&nbsp;good thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But it is definitely a factor you should consider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Starting a Business With Low Variance<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The flip side is choosing a route with low variance. As Nassim Taleb writes in&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3UhD4vq\"><em>Fooled by Randomness<\/em><\/a>, &#8220;Wild success is attributable to variance. Mild success can be explained by skills and labor.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep in mind &#8220;mild success&#8221; can still be considerable. Say your interest lies&nbsp;in healthcare. The high variance approach would be to launch a startup based on a new wearable&nbsp;device:&nbsp;The odds are low it will capture the market, but if it&nbsp;does&#8230;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/ouraring.com\/\">yeah<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The low variance approach could be to go to med school. With time, study, and&nbsp;hard work, you could become a skilled physician. While the upside isn&#8217;t unlimited,&nbsp;it&#8217;s still&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/weatherbyhealthcare.com\/blog\/annual-physician-salary-report\">pretty great<\/a>, especially if you someday scratch your latent entrepreneurial itch and&nbsp;launch your own practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To evaluate the odds of success,&nbsp;Taleb&nbsp;advises considering&nbsp;&#8220;alternative histories.&#8221; If you could relive&nbsp;a set of events 1,000 times, what would the range of outcomes be? In a high variance approach \u2013 becoming Steve Jobs, Ryan Gosling,&nbsp;Joe Kudla or Kirk Hammett \u2013 the odds are (maybe) 1 in 1,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a low variance approach \u2013 say, starting a deck-building business \u2013 the odds are likely considerably better than even.&nbsp;Assuming your level of effort and perseverance remain constant, you&#8217;ll probably have about the same level of success, and make the same amount of money, 700 or 800 times out of 1,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Randomness \u2013 or luck \u2013 won&#8217;t play much of a role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And that&#8217;s an important point, because&nbsp;luck always plays a role in extraordinary success. While if you out-work, out-think, out-skill and&nbsp;outlast other people&nbsp;you are much more likely to be successful,&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/arxiv.org\/abs\/1802.07068\">research shows you&nbsp;also need to get lucky<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Right place, right time. Or right person, right time. Or right idea, right market, or right audience.&nbsp;As&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/incafrica.com\/article\/jeff-haden-mark-cuban-4-powerful-yet-surprisingly-simple-strategies-anyone-can-follow-to-be-successful\">Mark Cuban<\/a>&nbsp;says, &#8220;To make billions, you&#8217;ll have to get lucky.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bottom line? The&nbsp;lower the variance, the smaller the role luck is likely to play in your success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Starting a Business Means First Defining &#8220;Success&#8221;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As you consider which business to start \u2013 or which career path to take \u2013 first&nbsp;decide what &#8220;success&#8221;&nbsp;means to you. If you want to make a decent living doing something you love, consider a low variance approach; choose a path where effort and skill tends&nbsp;to pay off directly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to get rich, you&#8217;ll need to choose a path where effort and&nbsp;skill matter, but so does&nbsp;luck. While survivor bias \u2013 and hindsight bias \u2013 appears to explain success, no path, no plan and no strategy is ever certain. Success&nbsp;in that case will only&nbsp;seem&nbsp;inevitable in hindsight.&nbsp;&#8220;Wild&#8221; success will always be at least somewhat random.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But keep in mind that where success is concerned, &#8220;mild&#8221; is relative. Start a deck building business with one or two employees and your upside is largely constrained by the hours you work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Build that business by adding services, crews and locations and your &#8220;mild&#8221; success can become considerable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Which leads to an even more important point. When you&#8217;re deciding what kind of business to start, variance matters.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But the most important factor is whether you will get to do work you enjoy:&nbsp;Work that&nbsp;leaves you feeling fulfilled, satisfied and happy and&nbsp;that allows you to control, as best possible, your own destiny.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The beauty of starting a business is that you are free to choose what kind business. Make sure you design&nbsp;and build your business not just on a potential outcome, but also on the process of achieving that outcome.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, no matter whether the outcome is mild or wild, you&#8217;ll still be successful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because you will\u00a0be doing what you love to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Source: Incafrica.com<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cc: Jeff Haden<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>#PressPayNg#EduSAVINGS#EduLOANS#EduSURE#INTERNSHIP#SCHOLARSHIP#EduHEALTHMAINTAINANCE#ENTERPRENUERSHIP#TERTIARY#EDUCATION#TUITION#FEES#UNIVERSITY#POLYTECHNIC#MONOTECHNIC#FELLOWSHIP#COLLEGEOFEDUCATION#HOLIDAYJOBS#SOFTSKILLSTRAINING<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While there are countless ways to decide what kind of business to start, for the sake of argument let&#8217;s imagine<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3277,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6729","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
