At what point do we stop calling something a startup? Is it after a certain number of employees? When there’s steady revenue coming in? Or maybe when the chaos starts to feel a little more structured? I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately. Startups evolve so fast, and that “startup vibe” doesn’t always go away just because the org gets bigger. Curious to know—how do you define that shift? When does a startup stop being a startup?

Don’t try to go fast when building a startup. Take it slow and enjoy the process. Fast doesn’t guarantee consistency but being slow and steady does. If you wanna raise funding and flex, that’s a different story 😄

Do you know any structured way to evaluate the idea in mind? When you have a idea, how you write it?

I had plans to launch my startup, but things didn’t work out as I hoped. Failure isn’t the end for me, though—it's just a stepping stone. I’ve never been one to give up, and I won’t stop now. I’ll channel this experience into new projects and startup
