Are you building a startup while working a full-time job?

Words of wisdom we’ve found from Founders, VC’s and Investors.

Here’s this weeks top 5:

#1

Very interesting conversation here.

The key is to ensure that your startup is something you are passionate about, as this will help you find the time to work on it while managing your full-time job. It definitely requires a lot of energy, but if you approach it correctly, it can eventually become your full-time endeavor.

#2

If you’re an entrepreneur or founder who feels uneasy about AI, it’s time to shift your mindset. Rather than viewing AI as a threat, see it as a powerful tool that can elevate your vision. The crucial question is: How will you harness it’s potential to accelerate your growth and optimize your operations? Remember, the future belongs to those who embrace change and innovate, not those who shy away from it.

#3

A wise person once told me, "If it were easy, everyone would do it." Startups are difficult—very difficult! But hard work always pays off. Work relentlessly to build your dream, not someone else's! 

#4

Customers thrive on having choices! No one wants to feel cornered or pressured. That said, confidently charge what you know you’re worth. If a client accepts your proposal almost immediately, it’s a strong indication that they would have been willing to pay more. Embrace your value!

#5

Bigger doesn’t always mean better! Embracing a leaner approach empowers you to be more agile and pivot significantly faster, allowing for greater adaptability in a dynamic environment.
