Good content here to inspire early Founders, Founding Teams, and those interested 🚀
I think right now is the greatest time to launch a startup You should probably consider starting/joining something A few reasons why:
I Think being nervous and having these early misses will ingratiate him further w/ his teammates b/c now they have something tangible and funny to raz him for. I follow Liverpool, but I'm not counting on Haaland missing gimme's consistently. ⚽🥅
Pep Guardiola on Erling Haaland: "It is good for him to see the reality in a new country and a new league but he was there and had the chances. He didn’t score - he has incredible quality and he will do it."

Grateful to finally hear a nuanced analysis of Lukaku's failings under Tuchel. Should be shared blame. Sport Perf. work has shown me that coaches and systems contribute to failures too. Keep up the great work @MelissaReddy_ 💪🏾🔥
🗣 "You can't spend £100M on a player and then suddenly expect him at his age to become a completely different one." @SkyKaveh & @MelissaReddy_ debate who is to blame for Romelu Lukaku's transfer not working at Chelsea

Obv this is not exactly like 2008. But I remember when we started, it felt like we somehow missed the moment… but there’s always the next moment if what you’re building is important enough
Lots of important companies were started during down cycles. Your conviction will be tested. Those that survive will be stronger

Pre-seed investing is truly a bet on the founder. This can be especially tricky for a first time founder. So making it as easy as possible for investors to do reference checks and understand your unique strengths as an individual is key.

Underrepresented founders are being overlooked by VCs at the pre-seed stage at alarming levels. If funding doesn't happen at the earliest stages of company building, how can we expect these founders to even make it to series A, B, C, D, and beyond? Change needs to happen.
