- eande 13y agoTrue, you have to dive your mind into the article to follow along as it has a dense content writing style.

- avighnay 13y agoVery true! As with life, ideating and running a startup is ver much a journey of chances and decisions. Such articles and authors' advice is as good as astrological advice for life!
