From my own entrepreneurship scars, the real curse is never knowing when “enough is enough.”
If I’d pushed a little harder, would it have finally broken through?
Figma, Airbnb, and the other freak successes only exist because they didn’t quit.

You shouldn’t be blinded by survivorship bias either. Some of the best decisions I’ve made is quit my startup or company when I see the writing on the wall that this is not salvageable by my sacrifices
People also waste entire decades because they didn't quit.
Inisisting, trying, experimentation, effort and not giving up makes a big difference.
I suspect the reason is because most of the people, at that time, have surrendered already.
I made $60K since launching a year ago, after 4 years of full time development.
I feel delusional that I still want to keep working on it.
I guess we’ll see how year 2 post-launch goes.
