Building something is not about the end result, it’s about you

Unpopular opinion:

Building a business is more about YOU than the business itself.

‍

We expect founders to build companies and then we forget about them. 

‍

This is why I wanted my story to be about the human side of entrepreneurship, not about the companies I tried to build.

‍

My book isn’t about inspiration.

It’s about the emotional challenges I faced.

It’s about the learnings that helped me most.

‍

Here are four insights I've noted down while looking back at my journey while writing my book.

‍

📌 Your worth isn't tied to your company's success.

📌 First-time founder? Feeling overwhelmed is normal. 

📌 Second time founder? I'm sure it still applies.

📌 We create unrealistic expectations that bite us back in the form of emotions

‍

My book isn't a guide to building the perfect "Formula 1 car." Instead, it's about taking care of the pilot.

‍

Entrepreneurship isn't just about the destination.

It’s about who you become along the way.
