Building a startup is like pulling a heavy load you either need a strong team or the strength to carry it all on your own.

I only realized that momentum builds with a solid culture half a year later.

Yes, I completely agree. Building a startup truly tests your resilience, as the right team or personal determination is key to pushing through the toughest challenges. Congrats on your release!
Launching soon!
I never thought I would be putting in hundreds of hours per month, but I'm really enjoying every bit of it and regularly share insightful updates on X.
Exactly! You have to stay strong, don't lose hope, believe in youself
I totally agree! It's tough but either you build a rock solid team or prepare to carry the weight solo
If we can identify a couple of self-driven teammates, half of the problem is already solved. Having people who take initiative can lighten the load and help push things forward efficiently.
Six months in, I figured out that trying to carry it all alone is unsustainable.
For me, it wasn't about the strength it was about learning to prioritize what really matters.
Honestly, same. A startup is only as strong as the people behind it. and I can't do it all.
I realized six months down the line that the strength to carry the load isn’t just physical, it’s mental resilience, especially when times get tough.
That's a great way to put it! Building a startup really does feel like carrying a heavy load sometimes
What a great analogy! Building something from scratch can be exhausting.
