"𝗪𝗶𝘀𝗱𝗼𝗺 𝗶𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗲𝗱; 𝗶𝘁’𝘀 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗹𝗲𝗻."
Stop romanticizing failure.
Failure is a teacher; but an expensive one.
Why pay full price when you can steal the lesson?
"Earning wisdom" = burning money, months, and sanity.
"Stealing wisdom" = getting the 𝘔𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘮𝘶𝘮 𝘝𝘪𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘓𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘰𝘯 before it costs you.
As a founder your job isn’t to 𝗮𝘃𝗼𝗶𝗱 𝗺𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲𝘀.
It’s to make 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘀; not the ones everyone else already paid for.
Here’s how to steal smart:
Read startup autopsies → mistakes are free case studies.
Reverse-engineer wins → business models, product positioning .
Spy interviews → founders, customers, even competitors.
Cross-pollinate → steal tactics from industries far from yours.
Every scar you skip is fuel you save.
Every shortcut you steal is runway you extend.
Now your turn.
What’s the best piece of wisdom you’ve stolen and actually used?
