What Are Startup Founders Most Afraid of
at 6:19
Answer
Steli says that it's a myth that startup founders don't have any fear. Founders might not be afraid of normal things, like death, but at the same time they fear not being admired, or not being loved, or being alone, or being insignificant. In some cases, that fear is what drivers them to keep going.
