The lies we tell ourselves

I agree with statement number two. It is true that in building a business we lose time that could have been spent on family and leisure. At the same time, if the business becomes successful, the problems do not disappear, but only change one by one.
“But once you’re really in, you’re in” - this hit close to home.
I know for a fact that I’m not gonna be able to go back to being a long-term employee anymore. If I’ll go back to a 9-5 it will be to further fund my startups.
We need to understand this , we do this to ourselves every single day , we lie to ourselves which will create a bad effect on our habits and working style
Interesting facts. Thanks for sharing it.
I dunno about 3 on the list. I think if you're not that passionate about the business then you can walk away. Some founders build multiple products just for profit - build sell, build again etc. The others I agree with.
Number 1 is definitely the BIGGEST lie. It does not get easier and it shouldn't. If you are always growing then there are always problems to solve.
