| Have not noticed this one so started my own:(, but i'll comment here too:) So you got rejected? Good! 1. Now you know you KNOW you're on your own!
2. Next time you apply you will know that accelarator is not THE CHANCE
to get to where you wonna be. Its just a SHORTCUT that you can take, or NOT. Lately I have that feeling that people tend to approach accelerators like they approach Santa:
"Dear Santa, I have been a flibustier all my life,
and I have a bright idea, and I am really really smart.
So please help me get my dreams come true..." Does not work. If you THINK your idea is something that has to be done.
Just go for it. Make it your mission and do whatever it takes
to accomplish it. Once I met those guys from UK in Siberia
riding their bikes. I asked em WTF? Well, they told me,
they are on a mission to go around the globe on bikes..
Why? They had no clue, I had no idea, but they have done it.
(find em "tough miles") Thats what a start up is,
it may be even tougher. (thats actually SCARY. Coz you will NOT have support
from your friends, family, spouse and any reasonable person.) IF you do it anyway, sometime you'll KNOW it works
(coz you have clients and revenue and the growth).
then YOU decide if you want to take the SHORTCUT or not. Hope that helps. Listen to Iron Maiden - The Trooper
There is always a chance. Sincerely, Mike PS: I will just go on painting Cathedrals to get the funding. Incorporte in HK.
And launch my app for the HardHeads in July 2015:) |
