Who here though, just a show of hands. Put your hands up pretty high if you are an entrepreneur. So I'm going to read A list of 11 traits of entrepreneurs. I want you to count how many of these 11 describe you. Are you often filled with energy? Does your mind get flooded with ideas? Are you driven? Are you restless? Are you unable to keep still? Do you often work on little sleep? Do you get euphoric? Do you get easily irritated by minor obstacles? Do, do you burn out periodically? Do you act out sexually, which is like flirting? Do you feel persecuted by those who do not accept your vision? So who here has 11 for 11, 9, 10 or 11? So if you have 9, 10 or 11 traits, you would be clinically diagnosed as bipolar for real. If you have more than five, you're on the spectrum. So you're complete fuck ups just like I am.
