I’m ceo and cofounder of my startup. Currently going through techstars. The product is good, has really good traction, solving a big problem in an industry I don’t care about. I have deep passion for social issues and specially education.
The only thing that motivates ALOT me about my current company is that we can make a lot of money so I can just eventually leave and do something I’m passionate about with that money.
Am I doomed?
Think about everyone who hates their job. Like passionately hates it and has a shitty boss, doesn’t make much money and gets a 3% raise every year. Now think about your opportunity.
Every job has parts that suck about it. Most jobs mostly suck. Dig in, find what you like, focus on that and find a passion project.
