If you had to share “words of wisdom” with a Founder who’s about to start their own startup, what would they be?
In this startup journey, self-perception can be deceptive. Your genius lies not only in your intellect but also in your tenacity and resilience. It’s an arduous marathon, filled with euphoric highs and challenging lows. Through all these waves, the key is to stay centered, never lose sight of your breath or your mission. At the end of the day, it’s the people who accompany you on this journey that shape the trajectory of your venture more profoundly than the product itself. So, build strong relationships, nurture a collaborative ecosystem, and together, you can bring your vision to life.
