- Arg. I must not have said it right. I didn't mean that entrepreneurs think life sucks. I think we're the most optimistic people out there.
- You're right about the observer effect. I worry about it all the time. That's why I keep asking for feedback.
- Aditya, what I meant in that last comment is that I'm looking for the kind of openness + optimism that you showed here:

- aditya 17y agoAh, Fair enough. I was just reacting to The problem I have with interviewing startups is that they're full of sh-t. But, like I said, opennness is tricky when you're trying to get publicity and the wheels are falling off, right? No one would want to buy from a company that doesn't have enough cash to feed the founders... if they knew that was the case. This is one of the reasons Venture Voice works, though, much easier to talk about stuff in hindsight, but I hope you can find more startups to profile on your show.
- AndrewWarner 17y agoYeah. Openness is tricky. I think Founder's At Work is such a good book because it wasn't written after the entrepreneurs' moved on from the projects they founded.
