First of all, I'd like to thank the author for having the guts to write this out, some of it is really painful and he's quite the man to stand up like this in front of large community and speak his mind. That alone marks him as someone that will one day make it big.

There’s no reason you can’t take what you learned working at a successful, established company, apply it to your startup and expect the same results, right? Wrong.

It’s almost exactly a year since I started documenting my startup lessons learned through this blog, and since my first post last November, I’ve blogged 26 times.

They say too many young companies are solving small problems and creating features.

Many newbie entrepreneurs think they know exactly what the market wants. I know this, because I used to be exactly like that. But time and bitter experience has taught me – I don’t know what the market wants. And you reading this, neither do you. Let me explain.

Company founders are the quintessential cheerleaders, promoting their vision and company every chance they get. But that doesn’t mean that they are necessarily the best at two core functions: selling and fundraising (and many are bad at both but excel at other functions, like technology).

But perhaps most importantly, I think we need more stories that celebrate the success of what seem like small, iterative product launches, but actually reflect triumphs in unsung disciplines such as systems operations, design process, business development and product management.
