I don't know. I recently sold my second startup. So I'd say that was not a failure.

But that doesn't guarantee all the future ventures will be a success.

What was the second one? Just curious what you adapted to make that work.

It was called Carrom (https://money.yahoo.com/oyster-acquires-carrom-accelerate-gl... )

I have not repeated any of those mistakes I mentioned in the post. I think that itself was enough to take us to a good place. Apart from that it was good timing, a lot of luck and market I knew down under.

Another thing was consistency - we also had lot of ups and down, in fact we stopped operations at some point. But kept going to come out of it. Consistency was the most important thing there.

A game from my youth :) I'm glad you kept going.
