They are so paralyzed by the fear of failing that they spend every waking moment reading Techcrunch (don’t do it, please) and other blogs, reading countless books and attending startup events all in the quest to learn some “secret” they think is going to help them succeed. Haha, true. Although I read publications because they have interesting ideas, sometimes its hard to recognize advice in perspective; ie. a VC will say something completely different from an entrepreneur. Frankly, even entrepreneurs in different industries will say things that contradict one another. The problem is when everything is rational AND the entrepreneur has credibility. And then theres the case of people blogging advice when they shouldn't, ie. startup guys giving advice about hiring and building culture before they've even left their own garage. Sometimes you just gotta put your head down, forget all the "lessons learned" blogs and and go with your gut.
