YEC Members Offer Tips to Help Entrepreneurs Relax Over the Holidays

YEC members are experts in many fields.

This week, our members offer insight on how entrepreneurs can relax during the holidays.

From Surviving to Thriving

There is a side to the entrepreneurial lifestyle that we don't like talking about. It's not as glamorous as funding announcements or product releases, yet can mean the difference between success and failure.

He writes, "By focusing on your mental state, you'll adopt the skills you need to shift from surviving to thriving in your startup."

The Right Way to Pick a Co-Founder

In this recent Fast Company piece, Dan Lambert offers his expertise on how to find the perfect co-founder for your startup. In addition to finding someone who compliments your own skill set, you should also find someone who offers a new perspective, is trustworthy and even empathetic. The BoardVitals co-founder writes, "Although you may not always see eye to eye, you must have faith in one another that you're both working hard to reach your goals, personally and professionally. Startup founders who can't operate under pressure with this level of faith are liable to crumble quickly."
