The two most important qualities in a founder are self-awareness and a growth mindset. Self-awareness = knowing what you need to improve Growth mindset = you can improve anything

I used to think as an entrepreneur everything Iโ€™d got Iโ€™d earned. More recently Iโ€™ve realized there was a huge amount of infrastructure set up for me to make it (educated workforce, execs, the internet) and I really controlled a much smaller % of the outcome than Iโ€™d thought.
