This is such a beautiful way to show via the animations rather than tell. I love the exploration and comparison to print design showing the grids overlaying the images. Nicely done. Super excited to see how this will influence future iterations of the product.

I feel like this is good advice for any entrepreneur. In order to be successful you have to immerse yourself in parts of the business you might not normally want to. What was the hardest part for you in this process? Did you feel any point that your development skills suffered while you mastered new skills?

Mad brings up a lot of interesting points. I esp agree with having more transparency around equity.

It's great to see this topic being discussed. I've often wondered what it really meant to hire people smarter then you and then how to manage them - great insights here.

Great post Noah. Making a pivot is such a hard decision...Anyone else have any experience with this? I'd be interested to hear more about making the decision to pivot (or making the decision not to).

Not only do I think every entrepreneur should ask them selves this but I think if you're not doing what you love, and you know what that is (whether your an entrepreneur or not) the question is "What's stopping you?".

Love this article. Always good to remember that you never know what you don't know and with a cofounder, you can quickly find those things out.

i literally cried when i read that post - thank you so much for sharing about your experience with Hansoo and your experience starting a company. its really great to hear about such a personal experience and now his legacy will most certainly live on.

yet another amazing feature / product introduced by Wistia! love that they're always thinking outside the box.

Wow what a touching post. Hansoons passion and vision is so inspiring. It just goes to show how the sum really is greater than its parts. Sounds like Hansoon and Bhavin had a great relationship. Having the right cofounder who can help you see things you couldnt on your own and who can help you expand your thinking and grow, is invaluable.

Couldnt agree with the two of you more. At a certain point stress can be debilitating for creativity and finding new solutions. Its so easy to get rapped up in needing to make one specific thing work that we become short sided in our thinking. Its in those moments of space where perspective and growth happens.

Wow what a moving story. Describing the physical pain we'll put ourselves through for a goal where the answer is clear, but being unwilling to put our selved through emotional pain to do the right thing really resonated with me. Those clarify moments when you're able to step back and look at things for what they really are, and decide to take the hard road - thats the stuff successful entrepreneurs are made up. Really inspiring and really great to hear someone speak about those persona, intimate difficult moments. Thanks!!

really interesting - had no idea so many of these companies started as side projects. also cool to see that many of the ideas derived from a need. sounds like a great way to start a side project is by working on something that you personally have a need for.

I had no idea formspring started as a side project. also super cool to note - most of the companies started because there was a need to be filled. seems like a great way to start a side project is to fill a need of your own.

i was thinking the same thing. its really just sound advice on how to 1- admit to yourself there is a crisis, and 2- focus to solve it. definitely taking notes and using these strategies in everyday life!!

very insightful article about how to deal with crisis.
