Today I read an article written by an entrepreneur about her journey. She called it: "The truth nobody tells you about entrepreneurship".
Beside all the things we have already seen/read/heard many times everywhere including on this forum, she said something that I found quite interesting. She compared any new company to a baby. Basically, would you ask a 2 month old to walk like a 2 year old? Or would you ask this same 2 year old to behave as if he was 8? Obviously not, so why are people expecting their companies or projects to do so?
There is one shortcut to success and it is to understand that there is none. The sooner we will understand that, the sooner we will stop jumping from idea to idea and focus on one until it starts walking by itself.
