If you’re not embarrassed by the first version of your product, you’ve launched too late. ~Reid Hoffman Perfection delays progress. Startups win by launching early, learning fast, and improving continuously. Your V1 isn’t your legacy. It’s your starting point.

2013: Microsoft bought Nokia's phone business for $7.2 billion (it flopped). Today: Nokia exists in telecom infrastructure, not phones. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐨𝐧? Reinvention can save you. But you also have to keep reinventing.

🚫 Startup Myth: “If your idea is good enough, the market will reward you.” ✅ Reality: Great ideas fail in broken systems. Innovation needs fair competition, clear policies, and an enabling environment. Startups don’t just need funding. They need a fair chance to compete.

@startupabujang Hiring friends with the right skills to get the job done imo is a plus. Hiring friends with no skills or whose skillsets do not match the job is just a disaster waiting to happen.
