One Founder’s Follow-Up to Airbnb’s 7 Rejections: 8 Rejections
The “7 Rejections” post by Airbnb co-founder and CEO Brian Chesky is probably the single most inspirational and motivational thing I’ve…read in the three years since I’ve served as the co-founder and CEO of Localeur. ¶ It’s one of those rare posts that has helped me push through the plethora of rejection I’ve received from investors and eventually create our own unique story of growth and tenacity, which I’ve chronicled here and here. ¶ Fred Wilson recently wrote about tenacity, one of his best blog posts of late, and I found a ton of value in reading it.
