You ignore it.
I had some success before.. And at 35 had a resounding failure (like lost $1m of OPM failure).
It was a tough pill to swallow, people I know invested in me and I lost everything they invested.
But you do what is necessary to close out the company and move forward and ignore the haters.
If you dwell on it, and listen to the people throwing shade to keep you down… You will stay down.
But if you look forward with the eyes of an entrepreneur, you will find your next venture.
I’m 39 now, I own 1 successful company and am building another (vertical integration with my current one) because I focused on looking for opportunities and didn’t focus on those who wanted to tear me down.
It’s not easy, but it is necessary.
