For those of you who’ve been here a while, you probably know this is something I’ve struggled with:

I’ll come up with an idea I love — something I’m genuinely excited about — but then I find out that a bunch of websites or apps have already built it. And just like that, I scrap the project and give up.

But working at my current company has completely changed how I see that.

Not only are we aware of our competitors — we actually have a whole Slack channel dedicated to tracking them. We constantly analyze what they’re doing better, what we’re doing better, and we use that insight to evolve our product every single day.

And you know what? That mindset has helped us build something better than what we originally set out to create.

So if you’re working on something and discover someone else already did it — don’t let that stop you. Let it push you to go even further. ✨

Hello,

Previously this channel was banned from Telegram. However, it has magically become unbanned. I don't know how or why.
