We need to recognize that whatever our latest success may be, it may in fact be our last big hit — and that's OK.

Over the years, societal and political issues are topics that can either encourage healthy discussions and debates within the team or instigate friction and division within the company. The question is, HOW do we talk about these issues?

The idea of bringing on a "Superstar Advisor" is usually a total sham — but it's all created by us.

Startups are often built at the expense of Founders long before they are built for our benefit.

A lot of Founders are tied to this idea that employees will commit the same level of sacrifice as they would for the company. And that people will appreciate what they do and stick around no matter what happens. But it’s all an illusion.

When a business fails, Founders often wallow over how people react and what they can say about the situation. The adverse reactions don’t matter. What should matter is who stays to help pull you out of the rubble.

It’s a Founder’s job to make difficult and unpopular decisions, even unconventional ones, which may merit the team's unfavorable reactions. So, at what point will being likable still matter?

There's absolute power in being able to claim not only our victories — but our losses as well.

Being a Founder is a job that anyone can get and no one is qualified for.

Communicating a bold vision isn't just about how it's delivered, it's about how it's crafted.
