As parents
can sacrifice themselves
in hopes to provide
a better home for their children,
a Founder
can sacrifice themselves
in hopes to provide
a better workplace for their employees.
While seemingly virtuous,
sacrifice
can also be a breeding ground
for resentment.
There are situations
when we have no choice
but to sacrifice,
but in many cases
there are ways
to achieve win-win
be it with children
or employees
by sharing the burden
with them.
The challenge
lies in our willingness
to be vulnerably honest
enough
to be able to ask
for their support.
