How do you get your project featured on Forbes? Thred.ai was featured because of the raw principles I share with /founders everyday.
1) Put yourself in the room
2) Be willing to make mistakes
3) Value genuine connection with customers
4) Lead with and prove value without a shadow of a doubt
5) DON'T BE A PU$$Y. SELL YOUR BABY OR IT WILL DIE BEFORE IT TAKES ITS FIRST STEPS.
I presented my learnings from 5years of trench warfare in the valley of sorrow, pivot hell and relentlessly fighting product entropy to 450 devs at a hackathon last weekend.

tomorrow is a new day.
the sun will rise no matter what you do or what you think you've done.
show up. do your best. be present. provide value to your community.
if you need someone to hate.
hate me.
if you need an enemy.
here i am.
if you need someone to blame.
blame me.
but do not quit..
do not lay in quite for old age to come knocking on your door.
the world will bring you to your knees if you let it.
if you win. we all win. if you lose. you do not have to lose alone.
this is a community.
use it to belong to something bigger
for motivation, to feel useful, momentum..
the arena can take place in the darkest crevices of your thoughts.
feinting and striking from your blind spots.
left, right, left, right, cross, switch
it can happen in a fury of punches
or in a slow bleed
the journey is pain, but it is the one you chose.
there's something romantic about that.
leverage this community for data on any number of things..
missteps, hidden danger, what might lay behind that corner..
for support, a warm intro, a place to show and tell..
I'm telling you to use the resource that is /founders to derisk yourself.
love thy anon and lock tf in.

ROCK OUT WITH YOUR APP OUT
As much as I love B2B saas, I enjoy flexing my creative muscles. Hackathons are a great outlet for that. I get the opportunity to entertain, wow and sell to an audience of developers and business owners.
I live for the roar of applause from a well met product presentation. Part of me still craves validation from social scars left from childhood.
So be it. Winning is healing.

I wake up with a sudden jolt of cortisol coursing through my body as my brain begins to process the weight of today—HACK DAY!
Inner voice: Get on your feet Kazi. People rely on you. We perform. On 3..2.. Here we go.
I land on my feet, the basement floor is cold, but I’m so jacked up on cortisol and adrenaline that I can’t even process the sting of cold cheap laminate on my feet. I try not to make eye contact with the pile of smelly old, torn black socks in front of my night stand.
