How to start a startup without ruining your life
1. Never accumulate personal debt in the process of starting up
2. Sleep, Exercise and eat well
3. Never forget 1 and 2
The rest are beyond your control by a large degree. Try your level best. And Yea, occasionally read through such advices.
- ioda 10y agoAfter having failed at my first startup, and having partially succeeded in second, I couldn't agree more on those two points. The debt accrued on my first startup still haunts me. And I really wish, I slept more and worked out more during the period. It is really a simple advice, to sleep and to work out. But when you are a sinking ship, you could hardly follow it.
- cableshaft 10y agoHow do you start a startup if you're at least a few years from getting out of existing debt? Is it even remotely feasible? I've been having urges to give it a try but I'd be starting in the hole, which seems like a really bad idea. I try to work on things in my off time but it's difficult finding the time after working all day.
