Hi Pawel,

I’ve really liked this series, and just wanted to say how much I enjoyed it. I’m currently running my second business, and even though the first business ultimately failed, I still think the experience was worthwhile, because it taught me lessons I was unlikely to learn any other way.

Thanks for writing the series.

While the last startup I was working on was a failure I consider it as a great experience.

I wish your company will both: achieve a success and teach you loads of new things.

As someone running a business that’s struggling to remain cash flow positive, I recognized many of my own mistakes in your series.

Engineers being too concerned about building rather than being concerned about marketing.

Understanding business models and what it takes to build pipelines.

The fact that a founder has to do everything and will often have to spend most of their time doing what they’re weakest at. (or at least it seems that way).

Thanks for the series and hopefully the lessons learned will pay dividends in the future.
