Hey founders, Here are some uncomfortable truths we tend to ignore about why founders fail: 85% of founders make decisions based on blind spots — leading to poor strategy or money loss 77% of failed founders focused too much on to-dos and task completion, but never paused to reflect on direction — resulting in wasted cycles and stalled progress 76% repeat the same mistakes, simply because they weren’t self-aware enough to catch the pattern until it was too late And what about those who succeed? 79% of successful founders say being self-aware was the single most important trait behind their growth 93% believe that reviewing past decisions and recognizing patterns helped them with timing, strategic pivots, and crisis management Now, I always wanted to practice this myself.... because I knew as a founder I didn’t have the luxury of large budget or time. I was okay failing... but I didn’t want to fail blindly. I wanted to become more aware of how I think, where I go wrong, and how I evolve… without overthinking every step. So I scouted tools. Most were just journals or Notion templates. I tried using Notion ..logged decisions, wrote reflections... but a month in, I was frustrated. It was too static. Too generic. No way to track actionable insights. No patterns. Just a list. That’s when I built Inflection Log — launched 45 days ago with one core idea: “Track the most important asset in your startup: you, the founder.” I created multiple trackers... each with curated fields, reflection prompts, and analytics ....to help make sense of what’s working, where you’re stuck, and how you’re actually evolving (or not). Just like athletes track their performance and chefs refine every detail of a recipe, I believe founders need structured tools to reflect, learn, and improve faster... especially when the cost of being wrong is so high. I’m now sharing it here to hear what others think. Would love any kind of feedback.... thoughts, critiques, or even suggestion on what I missed capturing. Its free + no sign up needed.
