being an early founder is tough- -one day, you feel like you’re taking over the world. the next, it feels like the wheels are falling off. -you’re not part of a big team where respect comes easy. -you have no real downtime—your personal life pays the price. -you’re often wearing ten hats instead of mastering one. -and people still take shots at your failures, no matter how much time you put in. but there’s no greater reward than pushing through and building something great. the alternative is letting someone else decide your destiny— and for me (and most founders I know), that’s simply not an option. just keep pushing and stay in the game. 🔥
