The Startup Lie Everyone Believes


Day 0: Brutal Truth
Most founders fail not because their ideas are bad, but because they waste months pretending.

Pitch decks. Market size slides. Fancy logos.
All noise.

The only thing that matters:
👉 Will someone pay you?

That’s why I built 10 Brutal Days.

Every day for 10 days, you’ll get one sharp, simple task.
Not theory. Not motivation.

Just brutal actions that move you closer to a paying customer—or prove your idea isn’t worth chasing.

⚠️ Warning: most people quit by Day 3.
That’s the point.
Better to learn in 3 days than waste 3 years.

The complete pitch deck checklist VCs actually use

Most founders lose investors in the first 3 seconds. Not because they’re bad entrepreneurs, but because their decks fail.
