Are you playing to win?

So many founders are just playing to survive.

So many investors are only willing to fund companies to subsistence levels.

My mother used to always say “Shoot for the stars and you will at least hit the tree tops”

Playing to survive means your vision is limited, your ability to raise capital is undermined, your likelihood to hire great people (who want to work on hard/big problems) is reduced and your probabilities for meaningful success are diminished.
