ROSL91: Hello Monday!

ROSL91 — Reflections on startup life, week 91

I loved this tweet from Alex this morning:

Had a walk through the botanic garden before going to work. Despite the money issue, life is really good.

“Had a walk through the botanic garden before going to work. Despite the money issue, life is really good.”

And followed up with my own.

Monday! Whoot. So good to see you. Lots of fun stuff to get up to this week.

“Monday! Whoot. So good to see you. Lots of fun stuff to get up to this week.”

Sometimes we’re up, sometimes we’re down. I spend a fair bit of time reflecting on what’s tough, but it’s nice to acknowledge that this is a mission we chose to accept. Despite the challenges there’s nothing I’d rather be doing and pouring my energy into.

It’s easy to forget how fortunate we are that that simple fact is true for us. For so many it’s not. Pursuing dreams does come at a cost, but I think we’ve got value for it every step of the way.
