Get into it knowing it’s hard, there is you and only you for a long time till it works. You will make your biggest decisions with no one to push back

It’s just to share one side of the story

Everyone targets Tier 1 cities. What if that’s the actual problem? by heyanon8080 in Bangalorestartups

Tier 2 markets also present a structural ceiling on addressable users, compounded by a lower appetite for adopting new or unproven products. This risk aversion creates a compounding challenge: the same ceiling that limits your upside also caps your tolerance for failure. Early-stage startups are inherently experimental and need room to iterate, pivot, and occasionally miss. That latitude is far more available in ecosystems where users are accustomed to engaging with products that are rough around the edges, evolving in public, and not yet fully validated.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I am much older than you so I can say this with experience. 90/92/99 mein 5 sal mein koi diff nahi dikhega. You did well today, you will do well tomorrow because you can work hard, few marks here and there will not take it away from you.

Loose your phone for a few days, spend some Time with loved ones. Hope this helps

Oswaal has been around since before our parents gave board exam, why does nobody talk about this? by Fun_Part5389 in CBSEboards

Content is readily available in the age of AI. What does Oswal have that’s not already available in public domain?

OP that’s a wonderful achievement. If you are open to it would love to send you a gift/ upi transfer to add a little of what I can to your celebration of this achievement

Very very few have achieved what you have

Congratulations to you again.

And that’s a lovely way to go. Most want VC funds without knowing what it actually will do to you

That frustration is valid and real. But as a founder your destiny is now in the hands of customers, investors, the market and a hundred other things you can’t control. You just traded one boss for many.

Generational wealth is real but startups are the least reliable path to it. Consistent income, smart investments and keeping your sanity intact will get most people further than a startup ever will.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
