Jerry Colonna is the CEO of Reboot.io

When we get too fixed on the proper way to do things, we are setting ourselves up for attachment and therefore suffering. So think about it. In our experience of starting a business, we have what the Zen Buddhists would say is beginner's mind. All things are possible. And then we experience a little bit of success. And the ego, which is so terrified of not having success, starts to say, aha, this is the way to do it. And then we start to deviate from that because life happens. And then the anxiety starts. Put succinctly, stay attached to the growth and hold mindset a little loosely.
