Do you think it's a matter of personality or just habit? Founders I would assume have the sense of urgency because it's their baby and there is much more skin in the game. As an employee you're paid to do a job, but a former founder carries that sense of ownership over. What if you just treated the job as a job, would that give a healthier balance?
Thanks for the perspective. Given the relative success financially of being a founder, combined with what seems like a period of sacrificing life outside of work, do you regret the being a founder? i.e. looking back would you do the same thing again?
