GW Startup Sports Day
8 years ago Guest - Ankur SinghFor startups weekends usually means either extended work, hustling, pitching session or attending networking events across the city. But for rest of the world it means Friday night Party, Movie on Saturday, Sunday morning cricket match, lazy Sunday afternoon or a weekend getaway. So are startups deprived of recreation?
May be not, at startup we are just passionate about one thing “living for our dreamâ€ÂÂ. A dream to simplify this world with our innovation and effort. Day in and day out we breath, sleep and live what we believe in. Startup off course is a marathon, but you don’t sprint a marathon. Hence we need to take a break guys, at least one weekend in a month. Let’s give some rest to our mac books, our phones and for once let’s stop thinking about networking events, investors and valuations.
