that I DON'T yet. Everyone says believe in yourself, which, ok from infancy I was taught to do. But you actually need a lot more than belief to really accomplish anything. Resourcefulness, social skills, connections and a bit of bull-shitting goes a pretty long way in the start up world. I was invited to join a group of Geekettes on fb, which is an amazing group dedicated to women in the start up and tech world. For a few days I lay dormant just to see the types of posts and questions other folks were posting. After a few more days of waiting and watching I decided to post myself (in the form of a question of course). Much to my surprise there was not one, I mean not one reply from anyone of these amazing, fabulous women techies, geeks and startup queens.
A long time ago I decided that I would forever leave What If World so as not to put myself through the lasting torture of wondering why or how (insert any heartbreaking situation) could happen to me. But as I travel further up the hill to start up mountian, I find myself repacking my bags to visit What If World. There's one thing that I DO know that THEY KNOW too. Getting from amazing idea to amazing (marketable, profitable) product is all about the process and refinement. In this process you just can't take no or in my case no fb response for an answer. So I won't and I will post again.
