Hello everyone.

Recently I developed a new product called [Product Graveyard], which is used to store your precious, abandoned, and failed projects.

Its function is very simple. After you register an account, you can publish your product information, including name, introduction, current product's death status (nearly dead, dead?), and then fill in your experience and summary of this product. Then you will have your own homepage where you can display your failed projects to the outside world.

The original intention of making this product is as follows:

  1. Every product is a collection of your unique ideas, which is very meaningful in itself, at least to you.

  2. You put a lot of effort into every product. Although it failed, it deserves to be remembered.

  3. Falling out of love is not terrible. The terrible thing is that you are still in love without a new beginning. The same goes for making products. If a product fails, give it a special ceremony and then start again.

I'm excited about my products and ideas .However, when I showed the product to my friends [from Twitter, social groups], they said it was useless, they said it was a fake need on my part. This hit me so hard that I blocked them and quit the group. I once doubted that what they said was correct.

Later, I reorganized and carefully sorted out the product logic.

Develop products -> There are more and more products -> There are always product failures -> Don’t want to be forgotten or want to store them somewhere -> Product Graveyard

After re-arranging it, I felt that there was no problem with this logic. Then I strengthened my belief and I no longer worried about their ridicule.

When everyone denies you, you must believe in yourself.

I'm glad I'm a poor average Joe when witnessing daily the lunatic attempts to get rich quick or slow by any bizarre means the distorted perception of the world as a heaven for the rich can create.
