India’s startup culture is a mix of good and bad.
We have copied mostly bad things from the west.
Some founders or investors are still carrying their ass persona with them. We know what happened to such folks in the valley.
Being high on adrenaline is not a sign of smartness but inferiority. People don’t earn respect, trust, or praise by being an ass.
People lose the bigger picture by being blindsided without realizing that today’s failed founder can become tomorrow’s unicorn.
Being nice costs nothing but brings an ally.
