Uncomfortable founder advice nobody wants to hear:

Your 'thought leadership' is killing your credibility.
Posting generic takes about the future of X or 'why Y matters' makes you sound like every other founder trying to sound smart.
Here's what actually builds authority:
Share the specific problem you couldn't solve last week.
The feature you killed after spending $40K building it.
The customer who churned & exactly why.
The hire you made that turned out wrong.
Vulnerability isn't weakness. It's proof you're actually building something REAL.
Generic wisdom is free. Specific lessons cost money to learn.
Which do you think people remember more?
