    Stories

    The stories we make, the stories we tell to our subconscious mind, and the stories about ourselves we wish to project are all different. We are constantly in a loop where “self” is in the center of everything. We change it like a mask on all occasions. We are in pain when our projected selves …

    Questions

    Question your decisions as a founder. It will keep you grounded. We live in a world where very few of our loved ones will give us honest feedback. The reason for this is that they don’t want to hurt us or affect the relationship with critical feedback. It can result in living as a frog …

    chance

    Life gives us opportunities to do our best for ourselves and others. It is on us to cease. It is easy to give up or become self-centered. What is required is thinking big and uplifting everyone around us. We tend to focus on what we don’t have and what we could have done with some …

    Wealth

    Teach your kids how to behave, teach them virtues, and give them autonomy and freedom to think without bias or pressure. All the money you are collecting for your kids will be gone if they are not taught the right virtues. Money is a means of living, but virtue goes a long way. It will …

    Default

    Our brain has a switch that makes us wander. The switch makes us feel good or miserable. We have to keep the switch in “good” mode at all times. It is a difficult ask but not impossible. I have been selling products alone for the last 7.5 years. My biggest learning has been navigating rejections. …

    Alpha

    I sell software for a living to the venture capital sector. I meet many people regularly. Many of the successful firms seeking alpha returns have kept relationships above all. A few founder friends reach out for background checks about the organization from which they are seeking funding. My advice: go to the ones who will …

    devil

    Some people in our lives are meant to be left alone. They are not bad people, but they are full of pessimism and jealousy. They can also be self-centered. They live in a bubble where they are judge and jury. Their worldview and actions will never come wrong to them. That constant itch of finding …

    Maturity

    A founder’s life juggles between insanity. What can save is having a responsible team. For that to happen, culture should embed maturity as a virtue. As a leader, if you do not ask questions and make people take responsibility, you will get nothing in output. A founder cannot run around like a headless chicken in …

    A successful organization is built on a set of values. In founder life, these values get tested quite often. It can be for revenue, hiring, or customers. While they can be beneficial in the short term, they can come to haunt us in the long run. A founder needs to have a clear understanding of …

    Independence

    We don’t value our independence enough—the autonomy to think and live with our conditions. We have become slaves to the system. It encourages us to horde by participating in discount shopping or prefrontal programming to buy and buy. I see many riches around me who are very poor within. They have assets for the public, …
