Accept it’s difficult

There will be days when it all seems too much and when the path disappears into the mist.
Build your team with people who always find a way. Accept it’s difficult. That doesn’t mean it can’t be done, it shouldn’t be done, or it won’t be done by you. All those obstacles? They’re just obstacles – and getting past obstacles are table stakes when you bring new things to the world.
