Yesterday a founder asked me how to bring โfunโ back into their company.
They scaled very quickly & suddenly the magic and fun dried up. (โEw, process.โ So common! ๐ )
My rules for "fun" at a startup:
You buy property as an investment to make money.
I buy property to reduce supply, which raises prices, which increases shareholder value.
We are not the same.
There is a red button.
If you press it: you, your whole family, and all your friends become billionaires.
But you can never use Excel again.
Are you pressing the button?!?
