I had a goal. "Had".

Not long ago, I had a goal - to change the world of entrepreneurship. You see, incubators are as far from being inclusive as possible. Not only do they use arbitrary metrics to accept or reject applicants - they don't even announce what are they looking for. When looking for partners at the earliest stages, we are guided by subconscious bias - hard to believe, but we are not actually in full control of our actions ("Thinking, Fast and Slow" by D. Kahneman illustrates this point well).

All of this had, and still has to be changed. My co-founder and I were doing pretty well - we were close to launching an MVP, when the silent killer of startups crept in. Its name is doubt. Don't get me wrong - it was not the usual feeling you have. It was the "I was constantly criticised by my parents when I was young, I don't feel my value because I am severely depressed" kind of feeling.

There is one more thing you have to know about me. Since I was born, I am struggling with fibromyalgia. Not feeling any energy, my body feeling as if I ran 5k a second ago, depression, or strong sunlight aversion are just few of the things I was and I am struggling with.

I have to admit - I am feeling hopeless. I have finished a top university in London in August, yet can't find a job or finish my startup. Living with my parents is bad for my mental health. I am not the most popular guy around, so I don't have any friends near me I could move in with.

What say you about all this?
