If you're a second time founder, or have been a VC in the past, one thing against you in fundraising is that, although you're more knowledgable, you're more jaded and reticent to believe your own hype & leaps of faith.

I don’t view this as a con
Because in my experience, this is more a balancing to prosper desirable levels of self-belief (whereas first time founders often overshoot) vs. being a drop to insufficient levels

Many have talked about how to re-discover the beginners mindset. I think its equally as interesting to discuss methods to re-discover naive optimism.

Takes greater strength to overcome these hurdles but perhaps the rewards are that much greater bc “now you know”...so much of it is abt the right timing.

imo it's much more related to the emotional expense than the logic of success

No. I simply leveled up my ideas to match my scrutiny.
The only thing I'm jaded about as a 2nd/3rd time founder is VCs so I save tons of time. Also jaded on need for co-founders for most startups.
I just build and sell customers things they love. Going great!
