Designing a System for Startup Failure
One of the main challenges in making time for a startup idea is planning for the moments when the plan breaks or when urgent matters take priority. It is crucial to create a system for the failure state, allowing for a quick return to the startup idea. By designing a system that naturally incorporates the startup into normal life, it becomes easier to stay on track. A method used at Tacklebox, an accelerator for startups, involves developing failure plans and building resilient internal systems. This approach ensures that setbacks don't derail progress and helps founders continue working on their ideas while managing other responsibilities.
