I have had more paracetamol in last 15 months than I have had in my whole life.

< Mini Thread >

Here is why ๐Ÿ‘‡
No, not because I was more sick in last 15 months than in my life.

But basically because I was more scared to be sick that ever.

Why is it?
COST OF TIME

my cost of time like for many others has disproportionately gone up and it probably peaked this year.
Me falling sick could lead to a downtime which could lead to much bigger loss than it ever did.
Back in the days, even if I have a fever or cold or cough,

I would push myself not to take a medicine and recover naturally.
Now, I feel I don't have that luxary.

I feel this is more evident for founders than anyone else.
Wait, why am I even saying this?

Because it's not healthy, at all.

And that just struck me today when I was slipping one more tablet since I was feeling a lil fiverish.
It's crazy what a startup / crazy work could do to you.

Gotta take care ๐Ÿ™

I always thought the most difficult thing to crack in startups is raising money,

But I was utterly wrong.

Can you guess what that is? ๐Ÿ‘‡
HIRING

For the last two months, my #1 focus at GrowthSchool has been hiring.

Can a 6 month old startup become unicorn?

Well an Indian startup did it.

It's called Mensa and here is the story ๐Ÿ‘‡

< thread alert ๐Ÿ”ฅ >

Mensa become the fastest in Asia to get unicorn status,

But what does Mensa even do?
They invest in ecommerce brands ๐Ÿ˜…

and then use the power of tech driven marketing, distribution, to scale brands globally.
Eventually they take over the brand completely.

The model is similar to that of Thrasio, a US based startup.
