So, you want to be a startup founder? The entrepreneurial bug has been egging you to dump your plain-vanilla corporate life and embrace the glitz, glamour, and fame of the startup world. Right? And you also aspire to dash into the famed Unicorn Club. Correct? Well, go ahead and take a leap of faith. But just to ensure that you are better prepared for a world that is not what it seems from the outside, a world that masks years, if not decades, of toil, sweat, and sacrifice of entrepreneurs, and a world where short-cuts are the sure shot way to fail, grab a copy ofย The Grit Storiesย and see if you have what it takes to become a founder. Read the inspiring stories of a clutch of founders, take a peep into their failures, low moments, and incredible fightbacks, and ask this question: do I want to become a startup founder? If the answer is a resounding yes, then go ahead, and live your dream.ย
