A guaranteed way to never become successful: quit immediately when things get uncomfortable.
Willpower is a terrible fuel source — it’s inconsistent.
“In a startup, no facts exist inside the building; only opinions.” Steve Blank
Friendly reminder that your startup doesn’t have to be the market leader to be successful. You can come in 29th place and still win.
One of the most underrated skills you can learn is the ability to ignore your mood and stick with the plan.
If the product failed to sell, but you learned 100x more than in the previous 12 months, and you’re living an exciting life, was it a failure? The product was. You are not. You are just more prepared for the next one.
“Charge $40 not $10.” “But I get customers at $10.” “Yeah, bad ones, they cancel at 6%/mo, you can’t afford ads, and it takes too many customers to be sustainable.” “But I wouldn’t pay $40.” See? I told you: You’re not the customer!
Bravery: • Quitting your day job to go all-in • Being honest on the "About Us" page • Telling the world you're trying • Hiring someone • Sticking to your values, when it costs you customers • Saying “no” to the wrong money • Asking for feedback
Saying “my team sucks” is how lazy leaders cope with their own lack of leadership. You hired them. You trained them. You set the standard. If they’re underperforming - look in the mirror.
I just finished an amazing book about startups/product development that taught me priceless knowledge. If you, too, want to read it, type yes in the comment, and I will share the PDF with you.

If you can’t plan, then you operate in chaos.
If we’re building something that nobody wants, it doesn’t much matter if we’re doing it on time and on budget.
Be the leader your startup needs. - always positive - always believing - always finding ways to be better - always getting shit done - always lifting others up And you’ll go far.
One of the biggest killers of startups. Misunderstanding the level of pain your customer has for a problem, will kill you. Customer discovery is EVERYTHING. 1. Do they have the problem? 2. How intense is the pain? 3. How much will they pay today? You have to nail this.
Great companies solve great problems for their customers. #startup #startuplife #Businesses
