If you want your startup to succeed, you need to understand why startups fail. “Whether you’re a first-time founder or looking to bring innovation into a corporate environment, Why Startups Fail is essential reading.”—Eric Ries, founder and CEO, LTSE, and New York Times bestselling author of The Lean Startup and The Startup Way Why do startups fail? That question caught Harvard Business School professor Tom Eisenmann by surprise when he realized he couldn’t answer it. So he launched a multiyear research project to find out. In Why Startups Fail, Eisenmann reveals his findings: six distinct patterns that account for the vast majority of startup failures. • Bad Bedfellows. Startup success is thought to rest largely on the founder’s talents and instincts. But the wrong team, investors, or partners can sink a venture just as quickly. • False Starts. In following the oft-cited advice to “fail fast” and to “launch before you’re ready,” founders risk wasting time and capital on the wrong solutions. • False Promises. Success with early adopters can be misleading and give founders unwarranted confidence to expand. • Speed Traps. Despite the pressure to “get big fast,” hypergrowth can spell disaster for even the most promising ventures. • Help Wanted. Rapidly scaling startups need lots of capital and talent, but they can make mistakes that leave them suddenly in short supply of both. • Cascading Miracles. Silicon Valley exhorts entrepreneurs to dream big. But the bigger the vision, the more things that can go wrong. Drawing on fascinating stories of ventures that failed to fulfill their early promise—from a home-furnishings retailer to a concierge dog-walking service, from a dating app to the inventor of a sophisticated social robot, from a fashion brand to a startup deploying a vast network of charging stations for electric vehicles—Eisenmann offers frameworks for detecting when a venture is vulnerable to these patterns, along with a wealth of strategies and tactics for avoiding them. A must-read for founders at any stage of their entrepreneurial journey, Why Startups Fail is not merely a guide to preventing failure but also a roadmap charting the path to startup success.

Love wins, hate ruins. Human, by nature, loves more readily than hates occasionally. The book, How to Win Nature and Enjoy Good Life, explores innate human nature and its relationship with nature. This book along with its four companion books—Nature Is My Teacher; Of Human Nature and Good Habits; Life, Living and Lifestyle and Health and Medical Care—constitutes a series that tells the nature-human connection and its implication in our daily life, in the related set of separate episodes. How to Win Nature and Enjoy Good Life primarily deals with love, relationship, marriage and family life. It contains chapters: Love and Relationships (Love is hard to describe; it is often bewildering and unknowable. You may never know even in your lifetime. But you can’t miss to sense it.); Marriage (To be a woman, childlessness is a private sorrow. Childlessness signifies a rolling loss into the future. It means no children, and no grandchildren.); Family (Today, children suffer from the lack of love and care, affection and attention from their parents on a daily basis.); Children (Children are the most valuable resources of this planet—one-third of our population and all of our generation. If you want to give one gift to your child, then let it be enthusiasm.); Friends and Society (Most Americans are home alone (2.6 people per household), drive alone (1.6 per car), and stay alone.); Life Is Good (Research on well-being basically concentrates on three core factors: health, relationships, and a sense of purpose.); Life is Beautiful (Life is half spent before we envision what life is. We are sorry for the past and worry for the future. But true living never has to be all regrets of the past or all prospects of the future.); Live Young, Live Long (Globally, life expectancy grows and shrinks according to income trends.); Enjoy Good Food (Food is remarkably a bonding force. Survey finds that in more than a quarter of families, food is considered to be an emotional response and a meaningful way to show affection.); How Food Works (Breakfast jump-starts the metabolism process of the day. So, don’t skip or mess it up. People who do not break fast soon after rising (half an hour or so), or take breakfast later in the morning, typically consume more calories over the course of the day and run a higher risk of type 2 diabetes and obesity.) Diet and Nutrition (Humans evolved to eat. Anthropologists looked at the diets, habits and physical activities of hundreds of modern hunter-gatherer groups and small-scale societies, whose lifestyles are very similar to those of ancient populations, and find that they all generally exhibit excellent metabolic health while consuming a wide range of diets.); Herbs and Spices (The herb is always of plant origin. It is not of animal origin; nor is it a supplement that was developed in a lab.)
