Expectations of first time startup founders⬇️
No 40 hour work week,
freedom of work and time at own rules.
Do whatever you want.
Go whereever you like.
Work from where ever you want.
No dealing with colleagues or fake friends.
Less communication,
more focus at work.
And what not.
Reality:

100 hour work weeks when necessary.
99% of time in early days you will stick to your computer screens according to your user's/customer's time.
You will need to follow growth trajectory plan, even if you want it or not. Or else you lose.
You can't go to random places according to your instinct to enjoy, now your time is more valuable than ever, If you waste it you lose.
You can't work wherever you want,
you'll work where your setup is, like it or not.
You'll need to deal with top management and board on daily basis and your communication is more important than the product itself.
Yes focus can be at work, but good product builders are not good founders for public.
You need a public face who knows PR.

Some wisdom I learnt over the years!

Want to know the hidden secret to wealth? ⬇️

It's in producing, not consuming.
It's in calculated risks, not risk aversion.
it's in being bold, not playing safe.
it's in creating value, not demanding attention.
it's in building empires, not destroying other's.
It's in healthy competition, not in evil race.
it's in being happy, not impressing others.
it's in understanding, not in forcing.
it's in dedication, not motivation.
it's in believing, not coping.
