True Founder What No One Else Has the Guts to Teach You About Starting Your First Business

True Founder will help you navigate the challenges of launching your first startup.
WHO IS THIS BOOK FOR? First-time founders, all-time founders. If you're looking to pull the trigger and quit your job, this book is for you. If you're trying to figure out whether you should hire your first team member based on experience, or take a chance on hiring friends, this book is for you. If you're trying to decide between angel funding, venture capital funding, or debt, this book is for you. If you're sitting there reading this feeling like you're about to burn out and that you're doing everything wrong, this book is definitely for you.
No doubt you've had someone make a comment about how you work too much or you need to take a break. As a first-time founder, you're guilted for setting work-life balance aside. Yet, anywhere else in life, sacrifice is encouraged. Think about a ball player who decided to go to the league after one year of college, or a billboard artist who spends every night and every last dollar in the studio working on their debut album. Consider a PhD student who's given up on even starting life until they're done with their 10-year specialization. In all these situations, you get a pat on the back for your risk and sacrifice. Starting your own company shouldn't be any different.
It's time to stop feeling guilty and lean into the sacrifice. Your willingness to chase your dreams is what sets you apart, and your personal competitive advantage and the strategies presented in True Founder will help you double down on the sacrifice.
