I’ve been building startups for years and became a parent along the way. For a long time, I thought having kids would hurt my productivity. What actually happened is that it forced me to take time seriously.
This isn’t a guide or advice. It’s just my personal experience on how parenting changed how I prioritize, say no, use my calendar, and think about work. Writing it down after a conversation with a founder friend who just became a parent.
Sharing in case it’s useful to someone in a similar situation.
