I got this whatsapp message yday👇🏽fm a founder grinding it out, 1 month of runway left. But absolutely unwilling to give up. 
We saw 2 great stories recently fm the ecosystem - as Meesho, Cred became🦄. Congrats to them, & let us celebrate their achievements.
But let us also celebrate the founders grinding it out without much love. Life is hard for them. It is tough mentally & not easy to keep pushing.

It takes a special grit and determination to chug along, to motivate your team on dreams and vision alone without hikes, or even delayed salaries; holding on to them when other startups and Big Tech are throwing money at them.
This never say die spirit inspires me - i hv never been a founder - but i respect & identify with the spirit that founders embody.
Founders, their crazy ambitions, & their never say die spirit is what brings me to work everyday. And what excites me to work as hard as them.

To the unloved founders, to the founders who are scripting their stories silently, know that you aren’t alone. And that one day your moment will come. One day those stories will be told. And your journeys will be celebrated & will inspire a thousand more startups.
Onwards.
Onwards.
