Thank you for sharing your story/learnings. I didn't come across your blog initially. These specially resonated with me:

  I need a higher level of certainty than investors do because my time is more valuable to me than their money is to them. Investors place bets in a portfolio of companies, but I only have one life.

  Listen to what your users say, but believe what they do.

  From now on, immediate benefit: sell to the user. Long term benefit: sell to the boss.


Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed the article. That was one of the big revelations for me as well. One of the things that made me realize that pulling the plug was not only acceptable but the right thing to do.
