This is a topic that is not discussed enough. We all know that entrepreneurship is a pursuit that requires us to ride an economic and emotional roller-coaster that can jerk us up and down far harder than if we decided to work for more established company. People do not talk about the lows enough because it is human nature to focus on the upside that a great startup can create. The tough pill to swallow here is that, even if you sell your company, things can feel awful. This paragraph really nailed it on the head:
Burnout is a sneaky bastard. It creeps up slowly and attaches to you like a parasite and starts to suck your lifeblood. Once it gets its fangs into you deep enough, you need a major jolt to the system in order to shake it off.
The great thing to hear is that Nate has had just such a jolt. Good luck for the future.
