i failed pretty hard at my first startup--it sucked!--and am doing pretty well on my second.
the thing i wish someone told me during the first one is that no one else thinks about your failures as much as you do, and that as long as don't psych yourself out you can try again.
You probably heard a lot about AI. One of the mistakes we do, is to enforce the use of AI everywhere.
Be a problem solver , “ Build to solve” and not “Build to build”.
Now let’s have a better understanding of AI 😉
