529: Self-Management Is the Best Management
The Startup Chat with Steli and Hiten
Running a business is difficult and comes with a lot of stress that if not managed properly can lead to a lot of problems for a founder.
Hiten suggests that over time startup founders learn to put away their own personality and instead take on a business one, which they use to communicate with the outside world. As a result, their own personality is put aside, and with it, their feelings.
Because startup founders often feel unsafe to share their feelings with others, they learn to hide those feelings and respond to the world without emotions.
The best way to overcome this problem is to find ways to feel vulnerable again.
