Matt and I got into a discussion about faith, spirit and entrepreneurship since the first thing I wanted to do for a career was a rabbi (he was a pastor for 4 years). Here is the way Matt sums in it up:
"I’ve been thinking about it a lot in the last few days, and still am not sure I have my mind completely wrapped around it all. Whether it’s called faith or spirit or soul or whatever, I think any entrepreneur takes a huge leap into the unknown. At times like that we have to look beyond ourselves and realize that what we just got into is way over our heads and there had better be something bigger than us out there somewhere to help. So I guess I agree, the connection is intentional, or perhaps even mandatory to believe in something greater than ourselves."
