We’ve been talking about it and now it’s happening. People are losing their jobs fast and they are left with little to no option in these trying times. As Founders, what can we do to help?

When we push ourselves to the limit in the name of our startup, we not only hurt our own well-being, but we hurt the well-being of our company, too. It's time we change that.

"My never-ending anxiety is awesome!" said no Founder, ever. We feel on edge most of the time from this sense of urgency to get one thing done right after another. But here's a secret: it can benefit our mental health if we just let things take their course.

In the Startups community, many Founders expect immediate returns and instant success. The truth is, outside of the community, it takes several years (decades even!) to reach significant growth in returns.

When you focus your attention on something that has not happened yet it will create anxiety that will hinder everything. Stop worrying about the things that didn’t happen and start planning based on what’s happening now.

Sometimes in order for the company to grow, we have to shrink first.

Let's talk about putting a freeze on your resources when returns take a downturn. You can definitely weather the storm when you understand where to find the opportunities unwanted downturn provides.

Just because we're a startup doesn't mean we are entitled to profit or growth — so what do we focus on when we really want both?

There is a lot to think about before raising money. If we weigh out all the possibilities, we can be confident in choosing that path for our company.

If our startup has stalled, that doesn't mean we’ve given up on it, it just means we have to figure out where it best fits in our lives.
