Our startup cohort meets monthly and everyone talks about their wins and challenges but there's this unspoken competition where nobody wants to admit when things are really bad. I've been struggling with some serious cash flow issues for two months but when it's my turn to share I keep giving optimistic updates because everyone else seems to be crushing it and I don't want to be the cautionary tale.
More people experience this than they realize.
Everyone in your group acts like they're winning, so you hide how badly you're struggling.
