Something all founders have in common → Freedom to → Freedom from At some point Every founder made the leap of faith To pursue their version of the American Dream Something that requires much courage → we're told → 70% of the global workforce → want to become entrepreneurs → to leave the 9-5 But they don't They want the freedom from And the freedom to But they lack the courage → as founders → we determine our own destiny → we fight → and we build Some of us started with investors Some of us started with nothing Either way there is no guarantee of success We all understand the risks, and then jump in → you fill in the blanks → the freedom to (blank) → the freedom from (blank) → we are free to create It's what I love about founders They are free Even when they're running on fumes Or about to take off, know this: - Cities are built by entrepreneurs. - Industries are built by entrepreneurs. - Economies are built by entrepreneurs. - 𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝗔𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗮 was built by entrepreneurs.

If you starting out or thinking to startup read this ! When you start out there would be hundreds of people who would not accept the idea you have. There are thousands of rejections before you get one approval. I say this very often that according to me 'An entrepreneur is a like scientist, you get a hypothesis and your job is to prove that hypothesis. If you get it right, congratulations you made it ! But if it not proved, then pivot and move to the next one.' A founder needs to have the ability to select the inputs they want to look up to. This is because every time you make a pitch to someone, 95% of the time you may get a negative response and you get a free advice. But, it is the founders choice to look at the person who is giving the advise and select if it is feasible to think about it. Be humble but don't let the idea die out. The most successful founders are successful because of a 'Zidd' to prove their idea be right. Believe in your idea ! I may not be successful but I think this is what all of the first time founders face when they start out & it's important to inculcate this belief regardless of you succeeding or not ! #kaamkrteraho #startup

81/100 | 100 Days 100 Posts Challenge In a fireside chat with Sarah Lacy, Naval Ravikant, co-founder of AngelList, shared insights that resonated across the tech community. Here’s what he covered: ✅ The JOBS Act and AngelList Ravikant discussed how AngelList played a role in getting the JOBS Act passed, opening doors for more accessible fundraising and equity crowdfunding for startups. ✅ Startups as experiments Ravikant reminded the audience that it’s okay for some startups to be treated like the experiments they truly are. This perspective emphasizes the importance of iteration, risk-taking, and learning from failure. ✅ Fundraising and the karma of cash He shared insights on fundraising, emphasizing that success often stems from building trust, delivering value, and creating authentic connections within the startup ecosystem. ✅ Networking is overrated Ravikant also dropped a surprising take for founders: Networking is overrated. Instead of obsessing over connections, he believes entrepreneurs should focus on building great products, solving real problems, and letting their work speak for itself. 🧠 What’s in it for Startups and Entrepreneurs? Ravikant’s approach encourages entrepreneurs to prioritize substance over style. Focus on creating value and solving problems, and the right opportunities will follow naturally—networking isn’t everything. Are you building connections or building solutions?
