Disappointed with some people

It’s a dog eat dog industry, indeed and in fact, I’ve accepted that fact long before.

However some people can just be too obvious about not being supportive especially towards other fellow industry mates. No, come on, not everyone is your competitor. And don’t you believe in your own rezeki?

And later, when Indonesian startups or any other country make it to the media: first thing you do, is you blame the startups here.

Blame yourselves first, seriously. Put everything about the industry aside, and ask yourself: What have you done to contribute to the industry? Has it been all talk and charade to show you’re cool? Or did you teach people? Did you share your knowledge? Did you support every other industry mates & startups? Did you?

Tip 1: In order to sell your biz/products, you gotta sell yourself first.

It’s all about individuality, personality and attitude. You have none of that, your biz prolly ain’t going anywhere.

Tip 2: Be persistent. Don’t give up. And keep making stuffs you love

One day, you’ll be discovered. We have witnessed some underdog startups that has made it big, whether locally or overseas. They just keep doing the things they love. One day, they’re discovered and suddenly, from 10 followers, they have 100 followers who are suddenly twitting OH YOU MADE US PROUD! etc etc. No seriously, people can be so fake.

Why didn’t you say that before they got acquired?

Eh I’m done rambling for now. To this one particular person: stop sucking up lah. You were cool as an underdog and I fucking admire you and your work. Don’t be a fakey please? :(

I totally forgive you for using my word but to not supporting my app. Too obvious but forgiven coz I know you’re thirsty for popularity now tsk tsk..

ps: fuck I hate the word startups. rockstars. ninjas. business. whatever. haha!
