There has been enough written about startups and reasons why almost all of them fail. So, why write another post about this? Even though there is no dearth of resources (blogs, videos, books, stories, etc) on reasons why startups fail and how to avoid them, I don’t see any reduction in the failure rates of startups; I don’t see them learning from the mistakes of other failed startups; I don’t see them focus on the right things that can help them avoid failure.
It is crucial that we understand that building a startup is not like a chemical reaction à add the right resources, under the right environment and you are certain of the results you will get. Starting and running a startup is a complex system with too many moving parts and any change in any of them could trigger a flow of events that could end in a catastrophe for the startup. Given this understanding, there are still some things that the startup founders could control, things that can significantly improve the probability of success.
