Something I’ve noticed about this too is that there are a bunch of things that are not in my sweet spot of agency and interest, and I’ve noticed that it requires me extra energy to do those things. I’ve also noticed that if I force myself to do these things repeatedly and forcefully without being nice to myself and not take care of myself — I burn out (in the short term or long terms) and so what I’ve noticed is that I have to figure out a way to regulate myself and my state and also manage the deadlines and timelines in a way that is sustainable for me. In the past, I used to think that I had to push through (self be damned) but I’ve burned out enough times to know that that just doesn’t work for me, congratulations if it works for you and by you I mean you all

Yes exactly -- this is the added spiritual dimension to the challenge Like, I know that I can learn and do anything that I set my will to, but some things drain the will at a much more rapid pace, which bends / breaks the spirit and leads to burnout So the question then becomes, how do you do the needful without resorting to force? At some level, it comes down to surrender, which contradicts the cultural programming around how to be a founder ("never give up", "fight through the pain", etc.) Would be lying if I said I understood how to navigate this well
