I am reading a book called "Founders at Work." It's a pretty interesting book that is basically just interview transcripts of successful tech start-up founders. I was reading the one with Max Levchin who is the co-founder of PayPal. He said that the best advice he could give to a future founder is to find a partner who can fight with you through the challenges of business.
I think that's excellent advice, but the trouble that I have been pondering is that most people I interact with daily don't have the fastlane mindset. Actually, now that I think of it, all the people I talk to (friends, family, people at school, etc) rarely even have a mildly slowlane entrepreneurial spirit.
So this has got me wondering, how would one find a fastlane partner if he/she doesn't interact with anyone who is fastlane?
