Session 6— Silicon Valley Teenpreneur Program by Edudot
In today’s session of Silicon Valley Teenpreneur Program held by Edudot, the mentor was Madhu Chamarty. He is a Stanford alumni and mostly talks about the concept of Minimum Viable Product (MVP). Not only that he also tells the deeper truth about entrepreneurship and how to become one.

From what I’ve understood, MVP is a version of a new product that is able to maximise the solving of a problem that customer faces with least effort. So in general it’s the simplest version of the product that can at least solve problems that customers face.

This concept got me thinking on how I can do this with my business idea. I already have the product in mind. But I don’t think it is the MVP of my business. So I’ll keep that in mind to think about that in the next couple of days so that I can identify the simplest form of my product. I also need to be aware of how my MVP can help my customers. Because, although MVP takes the least effort, it requires problem-solving that can really help and improve the day-day life of people who are using my product.

One main thing Madhu talks about that inspires me is to do the difficult things first rather than avoiding them. Make sure your brain is used to be doing things that are too difficult for you to solve. This is to ensure that at least the difficult things would be less hard in the future. Because if you keep avoiding doing things that are difficult, if in the future you encounter the same difficult thing it would be much harder to solve.

I learned that entrepreneurship is about trying to fix an issue with the least effort. Even if things do get difficult, if you keep trying and trying it would be less difficult overtime. There’s nothing wrong with not being able to solve things that are difficult. If you’re able to at least give it a shot, it would benefit you somewhere in the future.
