lesson from 10 year long failure
Around 10 years ago, I co-founded a digital healthcare startup with two other co-founders. But one year later, I got fired and got nothing in my hands. At that period, I was thinking "Let's start again..." but I had no enough technical skill set that I could build from scratch at that time. Therefore I spent most of my time to search another potential technical co-founder. If I think from now, that was the biggest mistake that I made. I shouldn't waste my time on it. Rather than that, I should spend time learning technical skills, building products and getting user interviews with my shapeless 1st MVP, and getting feedback from users.
Be independent rather than relying on others
My 10-year-long failure gave me a lesson about "Be independent in every aspect of life. No matter how... I should be independent." First of all, since the last 5 years, I researched about how can i financially get little...little freedom. Thanks to God. Finally, I figured it out for now. After I get financially "little" freedom, I will be able to extremely focus on learning new technical skill sets and building products and ultimately I will go out with my MVP to potential customers to get feedback. Think about it...When you have freedom on something, that means you can start any work or project as you want. I learned a lot from my 10-year-long failures. Independency is the critical thing in any aspect of my life. For the rest of my life, I will let my curiosities lead me to new exciting ways and share something meanigful with other people. I am not sure what it is going to be...but there will be something meaningful to share with other people.
