Stop treating your body like a rental car

Founders stop treating your body like a rental car. Have you ever rented a car before? We don't really care what happens. We know it's just for a short term. We abuse it, we drive fast, we let it get dirty. It doesn't matter. It's the same thing with the way we're treating our bodies these days. I see too many founders just thinking like, it's short term. I'll just sleep when I die. Sacrifice sleep. Sacrifice health, sacrifice happiness. It doesn't last, but you're in a game that's going to last a very, very long. And so the only way to thrive is to manage for the long term. Prioritize sleep, eat real whole foods, food that exists in nature. Exercise vigorously at least three times a week, build in real breaks, breaks during your workday, and complete separation between work and your personal life. And above all else, have fun. I can tell you, as someone who's sold a lot of companies, that the number one reason why founders sell is because they burn out. Don't burn out.
