🎯 Success won’t fix your insecurities. The same doubts you had before will follow you after. Celebrate your wins, but don’t let them define you. Your #startup’s worth ≠ your self-worth. 💡 💬 How do YOU separate the two?

We don't lose to our competition - we lose to our customers. Our competition doesn't make buying decisions. Our competition doesn't decide whether to trust us. Our competition doesn't pay our bills. Focus on customers, not competition.

An employee gave us his 2 weeks notice today and it was one of the most kind, thoughtful, considerate, notices I've ever seen. It's moments like these that really make me take notice of the culture we created. I'm so incredibly happy/excited for him + his future 🥲🔥

Your reputation is everything: - If you screw over one entrepreneur, it gets around and will never be forgotten. - If you do the opposite and put the company first when it really matters, it gets around and will never be forgotten (in a good way). (4/6)
