🚀 Startup Truth Bomb 💥 Before diving headfirst into your next big idea, pause. Many founders get so eager to launch that they skip the groundwork—investing before investigating. Reality check: Success demands either: Unmatched innovation (solving something nobody else has) Relentless competitive edge (outworking everyone in your field) Remember: If Newton hadn’t cracked gravity, someone else would have. Your “unique” idea? It’s likely brewing in 10 other minds right now. 📌 Moral of the story: Research obsessively. Build strategically. Start small, but think bigger. 💡 Greatness isn’t about being first—it’s about being prepared.
