Neetal’s Advice
If you have an idea that you want to work on, despite listening to this whole conversation. Don't let it stop you from taking the first step. Because just in taking that first step, there's so much you will learn about your idea and about yourself. Everything doesn't need to become a social enterprise or a business. But I think that it will strengthen that muscle that you can take an idea and do something with it. Amazing things can happen. I would just say that it's go and do.
