Fundraising is a painful process for many founders. It takes up a lot of time and energy and puts founders in a problematic situation.

Today I will explore the ongoing battle between two life strategies for professionals. Some believe that in order to be successful, you must work hard and grind, building for your future and focusing on work 100%. Others say that we shouldn’t sacrifice our present for an abstract future and instead should focus on investing time in friends and family, our health, and our communities. 

But what if both of these approaches are wrong? 

In this episode, I’ll share with you some of the insights I've learned over the past few years that might help you solve the work/life balance dilemma.

Ten years ago, I used to work at a company. Our office had a poster with ten companies’ values on every wall. The vibe of those values was "Faster, Higher, Stronger." It was the essence of toxic productivity. I didn't take them seriously and thought that they were marketing fluff. Like Google's "Great just isn't good enough." 

After launching my own startup, Hints, I realized that values could be super practical and boost your team's productivity. Together with the founding team, we stated four values that helped us to become more productive. In this video, I'm going to share them with you and explain why they are important.

Fundraising, talent acquisition, team management, sales, marketing... These are only some of the things that startup founders have to dedicate their time and attention to, and learning how to stay productive long-term in such a high-pressure environment is the key. However, many founders struggle to do that.

Advice such as waking up early, blocking time on your calendar for important tasks, using Calendly for scheduling, turning off notifications, etc., don't seem to work as they focus on symptoms rather than the root cause of the "productivity problem."

In this episode, I'll address these root problems and discuss two main principles that will help increase your long-term productivity.
