Building startups is not easy and can take a toll on your life. This presentation talks about three major difficulties I faced while working on my last 3 ideas:
1. Co-founder conflict
2. Burnout
3. Depression
I am currently working on a project called Knowledge Maps (https://knowledgemaps.org – improving the way we learn online). You can read more about it here. Feel free to reach out to me at arjuntuli.alpha@gmail.com or @arjun_tuli.

THIS IS AWESOME ARJUN!!!
trust me, all three issues are faced by everyone – not just first timers.
do something outside your startup is an imp thing for avoiding burnout. i would also suggest to have some non startup friends as well who may or may not be interested in your startup! really helps unwinding 🙂
eg. i have movie buddies, parents of my child’s friends etc who i socialise with who don’t utter startup jargon!

Thank you so much Asha! 🙂 While I don’t have many friends outside of my startup, I think is is a really good way of unwinding.
