Ridicule - Face it!!!

 By Kunal Shah

Founder: CRED

As a founder, you are always going to be ridiculed - 

no matter what you do-

Be it failing in raising capital-

or trying ideas - or failing to make the company last-

or even after exiting the company - and creating

great outcomes -for your team and investors 

But you'll notice a trend-

all those who laugh at you - would be 

someone who achieved lesser than you

Ridicule is their way of finding the balance-

Empathize with them and don't get shaken

you'11 never see ridicule from someone who has 

achieved more than you-

as they know truly what it takes-

If you don't develop thickskin, you won't last much 

Leo Tolstoy:

If you care too much about being praised (or ridicule)

in the end, you will not accomplish anything serious !!!

Let the judgment of Others be the consequences of your deeds - not the purpose !!!
