What does this even mean? If you are starting a company you should be in other people’s business as often as you can. You need to be selling your product to people or companies.

Are you trying to glamorize the “not work for someone else” theme? Most entrepreneurs spent time working for someone else, usually at prestigious places. This “domain experience” helps them raise money.

And is work play? Certainly we should strive to enjoy the things we do, but a lot of people work for more than enjoyment—food, shelter, healthcare, supporting dependents, and so on.
