    Pushing boundaries requires more than courage, it demands clarity. Most startups chase shiny ideas but fail to build the internal systems that measure innovation's actual impact. That’s a risky blind spot. I’ve seen teams innovate for months without proof that they're getting closer to market fit. Want to balance risk and innovation? Design KPIs that track experiments, not just outcomes. Count how many startups you engage with, how many ideas you’ve tested, and what you’ve learned. Innovation without structured learning is just guessing with confidence.
