Starting again

I've toyed around with the concept of doing a startup since being at HBS.

A few factors have driven me to this conclusion: 1) I hate almost every Fortune 500 company. Seriously. I think the only large company I could work at after Google is... Google. Can't imagine dealing once again with the bureaucracy of a large company, not to mention the politics, the restrictions on what I would be able to do 2) I feel... ready. My resume is a hodgepodge of almost everything I once thought I needed to start a company. Programming, Finance, Sales. 3) Now, here's the kicker. The best one reason of all. I think I'm better. I was talking to my cofounder and he said, not to be arrogant but, I see these people founding companies and I'm just better. I should be doing it. 100% agree. Guess we're a good match.

What has kept me from doing it:
I literally have no idea what to do. What do business people do when founding a company? They're definitely not making a product. There's nothing to sell.

My Founder's Dilemma class has ironically been helping with this question. We have had many cases where the MBA produces amazing lists of things he's completed. It's all basically fluff. Hire a lawyer. Recruit a CTO. Define the business plan. Well, at least now I know :)
