When I was growing up, I watched my dad fix many things around the house. He took it on as a challenge, but you could tell he was genuinely curious about how things worked.
Taking something apart and trying to fix it was his way of figuring it out. I really appreciated that, and I find myself operating in similar ways.
He also had a fearless approach and the belief that he could fix it. I never saw him give up on a project—almost to a fault. There are areas for improvement in that approach, like asking for help.
Thanks, Dad, for inspiring me to fix things, take on challenges, be fearless, and believe I can succeed if I applied myself.
China subsidies Byd. It would be bad for american car industry. So if US wants to create a fair competition, they would need to use tariffs or subsidies the US car industry players that could compete fairly with BYD.
Lots of founders go through this. You should have an honest conversation with your co-founder. Probably couples therapy. One option is to do it with another founder who has been there (me).
You both are going through a challenging time. Of-course you are going to find some things that are more interesting to you than your founder, and vice versa. Especially if you are pivoting every month (which is a whole different problem).
Going through tough times can build resentment, the way to get on the same page is to talk.
