“The Superior man thinks of virtue; the small man thinks of comfort. The superior man thinks of the sanctions of the law; the small man thinks of favors in which he may receive”
— Confucius, The Analects, Part 4
As you work on making progress towards your evolution you must find an agreement with yourself to operate out of virtue and sacrifice.
What via crux are you capable of going through and why?
Once you embrace it, you will connect to truth and acquire a different societal position.
Connecting with virtue prevents fear. Calm judgment is the basis of fearlessness.
Sacrifices are about executing your ideas to their fullest extension and being capable of surrendering to the process.
Risk without possession.
Love without conditions.
Act and be relentless.
In the business of rapid scale, it seems like every startup must go through a few tests. I have seen it happen with every company I worked for and with.
There have been three times in the past six months in which I felt that I was close. Almost there. Then things fell apart at the last minute.
I left ONEVC to start a new professional chapter. The ONEVC dream lives on, and I will continue to support all portfolio companies I worked with.
