Founders

Being a founder is hard because you have to constantly be working on things that don’t align with your zone of genius

You can't ignore something because you don't like it -- you have to learn how to do it, quickly and good enough to solve the problem until you can hire out of it

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
