"The 3 Lies First-Time Entrepreneurs Believe (And How They Hurt You) New entrepreneurs often fall for three big lies. First, "I need a perfect idea to start." Truth is, execution beats ideas every time—a mediocre plan with grit wins over a flawless dream gathering dust. Second, "I can do it all alone." Solo sounds heroic until burnout hits; even the best founders lean on mentors or teams. Third, "Failure means I’m done." Most successful startups pivoted after flops—failure’s just data if you use it. Believing these lies stalls you. Start messy, seek help, and treat setbacks as lessons. That’s how you move forward.
