Deep Into Your Startup

When you're deep into your startup, it's an amazing world of constantly meeting people who inspire different ideas that spawn in you.
These ideas shape your next move. The road I'm on must certainly be the correct road, because it's filled with the most interesting people I've ever met. Almost all of them have come to me by social networks.

I arrange meetings with some of them in real life that live in my city, and they are ever so beautiful. To see the shinning light of a startup in someone's eyes is like seeing sunlight cut the sky. The frustration that comes with building a startup always has this beautiful light overpowering it to carry the builder to the next level.

For my startup, DigiThinI think I'm now leaving all the beginning struggles, and I'm standing in front of the door of traction. It's a fucking giant door! It's super heavy, yet I'm strong enough to push it open. I've got the door cracked, and now I will push my startup into the world of Angel's and VC's.

Once my traction starts getting numbers that add up to impressive, well, a new set of amazing people will start talking to me. : - ) I can't wait to hear what they say. Especially the ones on my mother fucking list of  People Who Don't Believe In Your Idea!

You see, I'm on the path, and I'm not stopping, because I've always believed in the idea, but not always in myself. I also know that the idea has not fully developed. My idea isn't the answer, it's the instrument to get users to chime in and create the product that makes people happy. My idea is not the final product. The final product is the creation of both the founder and the users. It's the only way to make the best gifts for humanity.

Keep building your startup!
