The Journey Is the Reward

Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing.

Founders launching and running a startup will experience highs and lows throughout the life of the startup.

Some will find the experience exhilarating while others will find it debilitating.

The difference between the two extremes comes down to the founders' expectations relative to the reality of the startup world.

The startup world can be brutal.

The best-laid plans can go awry from black swan events.

There are many exogenous factors that impact the outcome of the startup.

Those who find it exhilarating expected the challenges that would come up.

Those who find it debilitating most likely expected few, if any, challenges and only success.

In the end, value the startup for the experience it provides and what it reveals about yourself.

To navigate the startup experience, expect the worst from the market and bring the best of yourself to it.

The relationships you make along the way and the knowledge acquired will stay with you for a lifetime.

The journey is the reward.

Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding.

Let's go startup something today.
