Crazy or Disciplined?
Meh. Interesting juxtapositions but it doesn't really do it for me.<p>There is a fine line between barking at the moon and a 5% chance of success? Really? I think a more apt comparison would be barking at the moon and selling all your possessions to buy as many lottery tickets as you can.<p>OCD is compared to disciplined exercise?<p>If Warren Buffet were born in medieval times, I doubt he would be considered crazy. He'd probably end up being seen and resourceful (having read his biography).<p>Lastly, I resent the comparison of religion to insanity.<p>Where I do agree is the notion that entrepreneurship requires some leap of faith that tends to go against the typical career route most professionals are ingrained with. However, I think most sane entrepreneurs (heh) usually have some background and expertise that will increase their chances of success in their venture.<p>Taking measured risk is not that close to crazy. People do it when they switch jobs or careers.
