The relentless fight for motivation
Hi guys,
I just wanted to share a piece of motivation for today, a regular sunny Wednesday in my corner of the world 🌎.
I've been deeply involved with several startups over the last few years, some as a founder and some as a consultant.
What I've seen in all of them is that:
- Results come both from the logical iteration of your product and illogical confidence in yourself.
- Apelling MVPs, effective marketing strategies, and good client relationships take some time.
- Nevertheless, launch! Your idea, blogpost, demos, whatever, launch something, and gain feedback for your product.
We are finishing https://dialecto.com MVP and I was lacking motivation, so I thought coming back to indie hackers and sharing this post to boost everyone (including myself) a little.
Regards,
Gonzalo
Thanks for sharing!
I appreciate the point about illogical confidence in yourself :)
I think you have to be a little bit crazy or obsessive to go down this road, because often the risk/reward doesn't really pencil out. I launched so many failed projects before my first successful one, and I started even more. I think if I'd been super logical about whether this made sense, I'd have just gotten a bank job or something 😂
Hehe glad you liked it :)
It's all about testing what works and what doesn't
