You learn this principle in sports and you rely on it as an entrepreneur. I had to ski at temperatures that were sometimes 50 below zero. There’s not much to like about living in a glacier over the summer. In Colorado, I used to walk a mile to work in the morning at 5:00 a.m. That’s how I supported myself as an athlete. Entrepreneurship is like that as well: you can’t hire people to do all the things you’d like to do. That is a luxury you may have in a larger organization, but you don’t get the luxury of saying ‘That’s not my job’ in a start-up.”
