Nicely said. I shared with a few of my contacts too.

equally applies to participating in sports, trying out hiking trails, etc.

Thanks @Murali.

I think once someone becomes aware of this principle, they'll discover more and more areas where this is applicable.

I’m reading your article after a long time Navin. I liked it and can relate to it. Thank you for adding the VC angle to it. One of the examples that I can think of is exposing our children to extra curricular activities at different stages of their life. They may reject 9 out if 10 activities but may get hooked to 1 for life . Another example is trying out new dishes. I know so many people who stick to dishes they know or have tasted at say a resturant, but they are averse to try a new dish. Sometimes trying a new dish can get you wanting for more.

Thanks @Megha,

Those are great examples. I especially like the idea of trying out new restaurants and new dishes. So many people are missing out on fabulous food from around the world because they don't want to risk the occasional dish that they don't like at all.
