My advice has largely become: Don’t partner on your first business. Don’t give away your equity. Yes, a good partnership can be powerful. But are you so sure you know what good looks like?

Change is always harder than it looks—that’s a physical reality, not just an aphorism. An old, ingrained habit makes the equivalent of a neural highway in your brain. These old habits don’t go away.

Practice may not make perfect, but it sure makes permanent. Practice makes permanent.
