It's been said that founding and building Startups is a fantastic personal growth exercise disguised as a business endeavor.

It's so true. Startups force you to think about who you are, what you really care about, what you are uniquely suited to contribute, where your limitations are and what your blind spots are.

Unlike a job where you have a defined job description and managers and peers who will tell you what to do and how you're doing, a Startup forces you to march to the beat of your own drum and gives you nowhere to hide from your faults and insecurities.

Become a founder, and you might just find yourself receiving years worth of therapy in the space of months.
