Entrepreneurs are internally driven and overcome many outside influences to get any company off the ground. So why care what they say? Smile and move on. When you do get a business off the ground they will see it was worth it.

In silicon valley most successful entrepreneurs have had at least one failure. It gives you "street cred" in that you have learned something by going through the process even if you failed.

What is critical for you is to keep plugging away to start the next venture, or go to work, but don't let what anyone say keep you from doing what you want to do. If that happens, then you let them succeed.
