"three years ago, I was telling everyone I met to start companies."

"First, part of my perspective is just driven by my natural instincts to be counter-cultural. When there seems to be a lot of hype around an area or activity, I find myself pretty un-attracted to it. "

So... create/contribute to the culture of 'start a company' ("bias towards action") and then claim "counter culture" thinking against "hype" (which you helped foment).

Interesting angle...
