Yesterday I read a Reddit post about a guy being depressed because he started a new project each month for the past 9 or so months and none of them became business. He gave each one a month before declaring it a failure.
This provides two great reminders:
1) Even really smart and accomplished folks can't always predict what's going to be successful. But they got something delivered, gave it a good effort, and then decided to move on.
2) Declaring failure after a day or a month is far too short sighted. Breeze launched in January. So about 6 months of lots of data and customers (or lack of) to make decisions like this with.
