you never fail until you stop trying, this is simply an opportunity, now you can see who the people who will be there when you're at your lowest are. i'm sorry its not your family, but at least now you know who to keep out of your will and who to not share your millions when you finally make it.

Family are awful, you dont choose them, and i dont know about you, but my family were constantly critical of my life choices - at some point you need to learn to ignore the base less criticism and filter only the criticism that is valid.

being an entrepreneur is one of the hardest things you can do career wise, the reality is the probability of failure is very high so the fact you didnt succeed this round is not even worth thinking about, just step up, brush yourself off and try again, walk your own path and dont worry what other think, it literally doesnt matter, dont take their criticism personally, at the end of the day, they aren't walking the path, you are, and its easy to point faults from the sidelines.
