You did not lose time, you learned. You could have built and shipped, it still would have needed a lot of effort (and luck) to be successfull. Next time you have a project you already have that knowledge and you can capitalize on it. Don't the say that "The doing is often more important than the outcome".
- henriquez 6y agoYes, I was going to post something similar. The author leveled up personally and professionally over the course of this experience, so it wasn’t wasted effort, just an unexpected outcome. An important part of being a founder is learning from experiences that don’t go as planned. It seems like the author has a really good attitude about this.

If you're burning through your own money to bootstrap something, wrong/bad decisions made early can cost so much time and money it makes it unfeasible to continue. If you're burning investors money, it's less devastating personally and you can afford that expensive learning.
