Any thoughts on this. Why do Founders always portray themselves as superheroes? Is normal job only meant for peasants like us?

Built not much value, ran the company down, doesn't know much about product, not a good founder so has no right to talk his mouth off to other founders. Basically another wari-poo in the making. Waste of time

Did he sell it? I thought he pivoted and then it didn't work and closed it.

I have followed his Twitter, he is pretentious. What the hell does he mean by his peers not being prepared for him ? If you are not in a IC role , you can keep giving unrealistic deadlines and pretend the colleagues are not able to catch your speed. 😂😂

I mean as a manager my speed is to build Paytm like app is half day , now all of you guys sit down complete the coding, design, product, operations. You people get going. If you are not able to do it , that's because you are slow.

Having been a founder myself, no we are not super humans. Neither do all of us believe in sharing self praising gyaan like this. The idea of making it your company only sounds good on random inspirational posts, but you can never expect someone else to treat your vision like theirs if you're not sharing a reasonable upside with them. This is an underlying toxic trait with many preachy founders to talk about 10k ft view and moving too fast, kind of putting down folks who are looking at constant balancing in their lives!

I can vouch for the fact that as founders while we do have grandiose visions of how we can make things big, we don't really have an understanding of how everything goes cohesively and like any other human being have blind spots that we ignored. Pace without rationale and backing is simply a way to burn money and people.

But this is exactly the kind of agenda pushing that most VCs and founders love, I am dead sure even if he isn't really following this it surely makes up for the right optics to display you have no limits on the so called 'call of duty'

Bruh what is he saying. Someone please explain in simple words. All I see is buzzword buzz word blah blah blah

Is he saying not to overwork your peers to death? That's it?
