Ep. 41 Are you really the best person for this?

I'm not sure I'm the best person for this job.I've heard this sentiment in a bunch of conversations I had with Founders over the past two weeks. So let's go right at this. Leading a startup is hard. Seed Stage is especially hard because it's the stage where you have to go from being an awesome "something" - designer, product person, developer, visionary - to being a true business leader. You are learning so much about the all of the jobs in the business: the stuff you know how to do plus all the stuff you don't know. How to hire, how to get people aligned, how to drive product-market fit, go to market strategies and tactics, how to manage a board, and a bunch of other stuff you never knew you were going to need to learn.So it's only natural when things are challenging to sometimes ask yourself, "Am I the best person for this?"The answer is:  At Seed Stage, there's no one better for this than you. In this week's Rocket Ship Founder episode, I break down: Why you are not only the best person, but the only person for this job at Seed Stage What to do when you start comparing yourself to other Fouronders How to show up with confidence, even when you don't know why you are doingSteve*PS Want to get the confidence to know you are the right person for the job? The Seed Stage MBA 3-Day bootcamp is coming June 13-15th!
