You’re desperate. For an investor, for a CFO, for a customer, for an engineer, for whatever.
Be cool.
Don’t be desperate.
It’s much worse to choose the wrong person, than to have no person. Your most expensive, time-wasting and energy-draining experiences will result from choosing the wrong person.
If you’re not sure, pass. Keep waiting for Mr or Mrs Right to cross your path.
In the meantime, keep your shit together and fake it till you make it.
