This chapter explores the importance of setting the stage for a startup to naturally emerge in one's daily life, drawing a parallel with a high school trainer's emphasis on failure plans and missed workouts. It delves into Tacklebox's approach to helping founders build resilience while working a job, including a method and three tactics they employ. Additionally, it includes a real-life example of a busy individual juggling their idea and highlights the significance of strength training for men's long-term health.
Today, we dive into a practical, resilient system to help you carve out and hold time for your startup amidst the craziness of your life. Most startups fail because the founders lose momentum when predictable life things pop up - you were supposed to work on your startup but your kid was sick or your job gets busy. You need to build a system that adjusts to this constant "failure state" - one that doesn't require Herculean willpower (wake up every day at 4am) and makes working on your startup easier than ignoring it. Today, we help you do that.
