This isn’t a startup era. It’s a startup cosplay epidemic. Everyone’s a “founder” — no product, no team, no traction — just a pitch deck, a landing page, and a LinkedIn bio that screams “building stealth.” They’re not solving problems. They’re solving for attention. – Copy-paste ChatGPT into a UI? “AI startup.” – Sell the same D2C crap with new packaging? “Brand disruptor.” – Raise from 1 angel? “Tech visionary.” – Quit in 3 months? “Serial entrepreneur.” It’s a generation obsessed with personal branding over product building. They don’t build. They post. They don’t iterate. They pitch. They don’t ship. They perform. This isn’t entrepreneurship — it’s roleplay in hoodies and hashtags. They want TED Talks before MVPs. Funding before users. Followers before feedback. And when it fails? No accountability — just rebrand and repeat. This fake founder factory is polluting the real builder space. We don’t need more startups — We need a reset.

Light isn’t just a wave. Electrons aren’t just particles. In the quantum world, they’re both—until you look. Observe them, and they “choose” a side. Don’t, and they dance like waves. Reality rewrites itself based on whether you're watching. Wave-part

Selling isn’t about being clever. It’s not about throwing mud at the wall and hoping it sticks. It’s about asking the right questions, planting the right seed, and letting it grow. The best salespeople don’t pitch. They help people realize what the

Why do many businessmen avoid getting a website? Cost concerns: They think it’s expensive. Lack of awareness: Don’t realize its impact. Tech fear: Feel it’s complicated. No clear ROI: Can’t see instant results. A website isn’t a cost — it’s an

INDIAN VCs: FUELING THE FIRE OF FRAUD They’re not funding innovation. They’re funding bullshit — because they can’t tell the difference. They fund noise. Buzzwords over substance. Decks over products. PR over users. They chase founders who pitch,

Dropping some truth bombs for middle-class founders: Most Ivy League kids aren’t building startups—they’re building resumes. Not all, but a lot. Why? Because even when their startups fail, they’ve already won—they use them as stepping stones to lan

Most founders talk too much. When you’re in front of an investor, you’re not selling a product—you’re selling a mission. But many treat it like a sales pitch. They ramble. They explain every feature. They forget: time is oxygen. The real challenge

Sales is treated like a shitty job globally—because it’s rarely treated as a real role. Most startups don’t even have a dedicated sales person. They assume anyone can pick up a phone and sell. Even when they hire, it’s like: “Here’s a guy from the r

Not every startup starts with a pitch. Some start with pain. We’re building something in silence. Not because we don’t have the vision— But because it’s not time yet. This isn’t your typical “AI tool.” It’s not a productivity hack. It’s not anothe
