It makes you wonder how common this kind of thing is in the startup world, doesn't it? We hear about the success stories, but not so much about the behind-the-scenes drama and potential backstabbing.

Just saw many founder were asking the skills or should we even start a startup ? Here's some advice from a Y Combinator group partner on that . 1. Resilience beats confidence: Success comes from bouncing back, not just feeling sure. 2. Motivations change: Focus on genuine interest in the problem and enjoying your team. 3. Prepare for the worst: Can you handle failure? It's a learning experience. 4. Find co-founders: Surround yourself with smart, ambitious people. 5. Try side projects: See what energizes you outside your day job. 6. Passion over traction: Quality users matter more than quantity. 7. If you find the right team and idea, go for it. Experience is priceless.

4th part is most difficult and building a dedicated team to do so, is even more difficult. Especially as a startup, when you either earn nothing or earn very small, it's very difficult to get dedicated and skilled people work for you for minimum wages.

We are mostly enjoying the beats and are more focused on the music rather then the lyrics in a song. 🙄 Don't you think that the efforts put by the lyricist to write a song or a line which has a very deep meaning in it is going waste these day? 🤔
