(Solo-founder in the middle of a last pre-launch crunch): all the emotions I had (excitement, fear, doubt, fun, confusion) seem to have been dialled out to white noise and I find myself in a moment of almost zen like tranquillity. I know what I need to do and am just doing it. I get up, go to my computer, work and go to bed. I do this 6 days a week and spend day 7 re-assuring my girlfriend she's not in love with a robot.
It's not sustainable, the end's in sight but perversely it's quite liberating. I feel like I've finally achieved complete internal acceptance of what I'm doing.
- nartz 12y agoSounds like you are approaching burnout my friend. Beware the unsustainability of this approach. Launch is simply the start of a long journey. If the launch fails to get traction, will you have the energy to continue?
