Thanks @d4V! Great thread.
Cons:
• Feeling like you can never keep up or be fast enough
• Being your own worst mental enemy—self-doubt, sabotage
• Not making time for yourself
• Working with your life partner and hanging out 23 hrs a day lol @travisgertz. Kidding. ;)
Would love to hear your pros/cons about being an entrepreneur from: @cathyhuyghe @MattGiovanisci @rekaharos @Amylieberfarb @randfish @JasonBWise @hjpmiles @TheStrayMuse @RachelWineNerd @beckhopkinswine and others of course.
Pros:
• Creating economic security for our employees
• Being completely unconventional & not giving a fuck so long as we can uplift people running projects
• Working on fun creative projects
• Learning how to show up better for @travisgertz by separating work & home stuff
