I used to think venture investing is 80% an intellectual test, 20% emotional test. Now I’d say it’s the reverse. I’d say the same about my experiences as a startup founder. Probably true of many other long-term activities.

For sure, especially when it comes to conviction bets on new trends or radical technologies before others have understood or even spotted them. At the same time, you might be right about the trend/tech/goal but wrong about the timing/team/path, so still important to reign over emotions and calibrate them accordingly.
