My main lesson from running a startup: don't. And if you do, quit when the going gets tough. Perseverance does not pay off.
Obviously it doesn't always end badly. But we get a massively skewed view from survivor bias.
My life turned out pretty damn well once I got a plain ordinary job working for someone else. But I don't kid myself: when it comes to starting a startup, I did fail. The main lesson I learned was that I was always going to.
