TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Nowadays, the younger generation choose to enter the business world by presenting numerous innovations in an attempt to attract consumers. Oftentimes, many of them make several mistakes during the commencement.


Go-Jek CEO Nadiem Makarim shared three things he considers as mistakes that many startups often experience.


1. Ignoring the importance of data collecting


Any form of decisions making, plans, and steps taken must be based on reliable data. “Data is a valid source that can be our base to calculate the steps that we undergo in the long run,” Nadiem explained.


2. The fear of failing


The second mistake is to cave into your fears, which can lead to your setback. He revealed that people tend to sacrifice valuable opportunity and valuable time by hiding behind excuses such as waiting to build confidence and waiting for an opportunity to arise.


3. Afraid to make mistakes


The third mistake, according to Nadiem, is surrendering to the fear of making mistakes. He reminded that mistakes and failures can be a valuable lesson for the journey of your business. Not being afraid of conducting a business will push new ideas and innovations that can actually develop your business.
