This week, many people I feel I have gone above and beyond for are asking a little bit more from me than I can handle. I have friends and people in my network who expect me to be there whenever they need me. I know I am moaning when i should feel lucky to be able to help.
After failing at a couple of businesses, I have learnt a lot to help other startups avoid the mistakes I made. Perhaps I must share that as much as possible. Still, I feel unappreciated when people just expect.
This morning I got a text from someone who said thanks for the help I gave her six months ago. She just raised £500K for her startup based on advice and a referral i gave her—That's all I needed to feel appreciated again.
We all need a little bit of appreciation and recognition sometimes.
