My sole criterion for investing is answering this question in my head: "Will this happen?" And I use psychology as the underlying basis for helping me arrive at the answer.
Conventional investing parameters carry lower relevance for me. From an outsider's perspective, I invest agnostically in stage, location, industry, and technology.
When I first started investing, I tried using Excel. There seemed to be no end to the list of parameters I could add for evaluation. And this level of pre-defined detail and structure confined my thinking. So I ditched it in favor of a different method. Now, I use loose-leaf paper, wooden pencils, and pens, along with some whiteboarding.
I put serious and continuous effort to broaden and deepen my knowledge. This helps me reduce decision-making time for investing. And becoming a better resource for the ever dynamic company building process.
