Taking the Next Step Through Uncertainty

The #SchwabIMPACT Conference is always a highlight for our team because we love the spirit of learning and growth that defines this event. Here’s an analogy we’ve been thinking about a lot lately about uncertainty in new ventures:

“… it’s like you’re at the base of a mountain that’s shrouded in fog. You’re looking up at the mountain and trying to figure out how to get up there, but you can only see three or four steps ahead because the fog is so thick. So you have to just take steps into the unknown. And when you take three steps, another three steps will be revealed ahead of you. And sometimes you’ll end up on some local maxima and have to retrace your steps… But most people in life don’t take the steps into the unknown because it’s scary.” Brian Armstrong

At Nebo, we believe real progress comes from taking the next step even when the path is unclear. That is how breakthroughs happen, whether we’re rethinking portfolio construction, moving beyond risk scores, or building the modern model matchmaker.
