Entrepreneurship is a combat sport.
You take hits constantly and the game is largely about how you absorb them.
Nobody is winning on offense alone.
Conditioning matters more than talent past a certain point, the founder who can keep showing up in month 18 beats the one who gassed out in month 6.
You're mostly alone in the ring even with a team in your corner is shouting advice.
And just like boxing, everyone watching thinks they could do it too until they take one clean shot 😁
