Startup Failure is just One Chapter in Founder Life

The hard thing about failure is putting it into perspective. Startups Fail. All the time.

I speak to Founders and co-founders all the time who are going through the most brutal moments of their professional careers. For them, it feels like an eternity, and more importantly, it feels like a permanent tombstone for the rest of their career.

For me, it’s the millionth time I’ve seen the same story play out. A Founder gets fired up about a new venture and building something amazing, it goes well for a while, then out of nowhere it tanks, and the Founder feels like it’s the end of the world. Except I’ve been doing this for 30 years, and I’ve had plenty of these moments myself.

What matters in these moments is getting some perspective on how fleeting they are, and more importantly, how they are only one small bit of a much larger story.
