I’ve learnt it in the last two years and will probably change my life forever.

Under the Hood

Before we start with the lessons, I would love to give credit to the days I’ve spent alone to understand the basics of who I am and who I want to become.

But I read this post by Sam Altman the Founder of OpenAI. He has good experience working with Y combinator and he wrote this beautiful story to read.

Be sincere, not serious.

Let’s begin the picture,

1. Manage your finances

Money is fuel, I know it’s not the most important but certainly, for the initial days, it becomes everything. Money is the only reason why you will shut down your startup or stop working on your idea or you and your team collapse.

My advice is to have enough OXYGEN($) at least for the next 6 months. The day you quit your job the reverse counting of going bankrupt begins.

Try to manage your finances prior take a couple of 6 months of thousands of dollars as extra unwanted/surprised expenses and the rest your next each 6 month's expense

Lastly, while working for your startup try to stay consistent with your monthly investments it will be future OXYGEN.

2. Understand your inner chaos
