Someone: What is the startup culture?
Me : A culture where 'pivot' is a fancy word for "our first idea didn’t work, let’s try something else before the money runs out"
Building a startup? Everyone will have advice—
"Don't stress." "Take breaks." "Go out, have fun."
But in the end, you just do what it takes.
Sick? Work.
Hungry? Work.
Burnt out? Work.
Because that's what building really looks like.
I am a graduate student. And I want to start a company in which we will make some useful things using the straw that is wasted by farmers. We will get the raw material easily.
IF ONLY you KNEW what you’re TRULY capable of…
You’d be DISGUSTED, and SICK TO YOUR STOMACH at how much of your potential you are WASTING.
What a shame that you’re too afraid and lazy to do anything about it.
