Say No to Entrepreneur Porn…

I mentor   a number of the entrepreneurs, and below are some of the things I have said to them in the past:

-It’s ok to hate your team from time to time, actually its normal (ask most entrepreneurs)

– Remember no matter how bad it is, it could get worse (trust me, it will)

-You will always have problems, they will just be of a better quality as you progress

– Find a coping mechanism religion, alcohol, family, food (you will need it)

Why do I say things….

Quite simply because entrepreneurship is a  hard and tough road with many upsides but there is  no use coddling and ill preparing people to take up the challenge.
