You can win.

I wrote about how the entrepreneur’s path is pathless:

You can win by focusing on a one product.
You can win by placing multiple small bets.
You can win by taking VC funding.
You can win by going bootstrapped.
You can win by going solo.
You can win by having a huge team.
You can win by shipping bytes.
You can win by shipping real atoms.
You can win by hitting $1k MRR.
You can win by hitting $1B valuation.

But I wasn’t done yet. Here’s part two:

There are no rules.

You can win by offering free plans.
You can win by going all premium.

You can win by open source.
You can win by closed source.

You can win by building a great product.
You can win by building a mediocre product.

You can win by being in a small, niche market.
You can win by being in a large, saturated market.

You can win by being novel and unique.
You can win by being common and ubiquitous.

You can win by zero paid marketing.
You can win by only ads.

You can win by consistency.
You can win by intensity.

You can win by being smart.
You can win by being dumb.

You can win.
Any which way.
As long as it’s your own.
