- Perfectionism can be a barrier to success: The entrepreneur was so focused on being the best (winning competitions) that he didn't want to share his app with others because he didn't consider himself a "winner".
- Success is not solely measured by competition: The entrepreneur's performance, regardless of whether he placed 1st, 2nd, or 4th, didn't define his worth. Anyone can create something valuable without being a "winner".
- Marketing and promotion are crucial: The app was good, but it wasn't until a marketer convinced the entrepreneur to share it and market it that it started to gain traction and generate significant revenue.
- Action and experimentation can lead to breakthroughs: By finally taking action and making one post, the entrepreneur's revenue doubled. This shows that even small actions can lead to significant positive change.
- Don't hold back due to perceived limitations: The entrepreneur's self-limiting beliefs almost prevented him from sharing his app with others. This story highlights the importance of letting go of perceived limitations and taking risks.
Overall, the story emphasizes the importance of overcoming self-doubt, taking action, and embracing one's accomplishments, regardless of whether they meet others' expectations.
