Every entrepreneur wants the good life: financial security, time with family, work without assholes.

That’s the downhill of startup life.

But before you can go downhill, you must go uphill.

Financial insecurity. Time away from family. Work with assholes.

Don’t begrudge it.

Put your head down and grind your way up the hill.

The downhill is worth it.

And there’s no other way to do it.
