Pilthy Insights for Filthy Founders :)
As I ponder playing a course longer than most in the world (it has eaten up most overseas players), having not played golf for at least a few months (who has the time or money in a startup, plus 2 years ago i dislocated my knee hitting a 2 iron - crazy) here are my favourite 5 from 17 Pithy Insights For Startup Founders :
1. Startup founders work long hours for a reason. There’s more work than there are people. If you’re seeking balance, seek it elsewhere.
2. Learn to take calculated risks. The market rarely rewards safe bets.
3. Force yourself to write, as it will force you to think.
4. At least once every year or so, your startup will almost die.
5. The problem you solve should be ugly. The solution you build should be beautiful.
