I was planning to write something along the same lines, if I make it. I guess the reason of this happening is this - after you fail, you are too busy picking up the pieces, and trying to survive.

I have written so much about small wins at my previous startup. And when it shut down, I was just trying to avoid falling.

In the current one, we built and failed with 5 products. And then got more traction in 10 days than we'd ever had ! When I put it this way, it sound like the story of success (in the making).

But it isn't. It is (if I write it), the story of how we got it wrong, and what not to do. The bonus is that we make it.

Check out LightCat.io to see what got traction eventually.

You guys are smart - yes, this is a shameless plug. I am poor and cheap, and this is all I've got.

It will be difficult for you to know how much I empathize with this statement. Beautifully put.

Good luck to you Utkarsh.
