It’s just a job, don’t make it your world (unless you’re the founder). Find meaning and friends outside of the job. By all means be hyped, but don’t put everything else on hold because of the job.

To be fair this should be applicable to any job not just small/young start ups.

Nice advice, I've come to this conclusion some years back, and it was one of the best decisions I've made. I got into climbing again and started going outside quite often, that boost my energy levels and improved my mental health quite a bit.

And yeah, this should be applied to any job.

The job is part of your life, not your life.
