Why is it so Hard to Get into YC?
To understand why it's difficult to get into YC, let's first review the application process:
Step 1: Fill out the YC application form online.
Step 2: Strong applications are selected for an interview round.
Step 3:
Do not give up!
When everything goes wrong, and it will happen someday - don't give up!
When your money runs out and your debts are high, donโt give up!
When you're tired, rest if you can't bear it, but don't give up!
After all, success is often
You're bored because you're comfortable.
You're comfortable because you're scared of change.
You're scared of change because you lack perspective.
Don't change everything at once.
Change one thing at a time.
But don't aim small.
Big irrational go

and one day, it lands.
Not because you're smart.
Not because you're lucky.
But because numbers don't lie.
You just quit too early.
