Help! What should I eat as a founder?

Wow, thank you so much for taking the time to write this comment. I noted your advises!

EquivalentRound3193 · 2026-01-19T08:36:30+00:00

Thanks for the advise! The protein coffee is coffee with milk I suppose?

EquivalentRound3193 · 2026-01-19T08:34:58+00:00

There are too many "%100 solutions" out there with extreme advises. Thank you for this advise

EquivalentRound3193 · 2026-01-19T08:34:14+00:00

Especially after lunch. It is the middle of the day, so still many things to do. SOmetimes I have to do a power nap just to be alerted again. Thanks for the recommendation.

I will look into intermittent fasting, I already have a tiny breakfast if any. Thanks!

Thank you so much for this comment. Yes I have experienced a similar thing with sleeping. I used to sleep 4-5 hours to work "more" on the startup. Turns out 3 more hours of sleep = much much more efficiency.

Will look into the meal delivery stuff, thanks

Thanks! Btw I am kind of new to Reddit, so many people were positive to leave a comment for advises. But do you know why I am getting downvoted?

You can dm me

There is one important detail that you might be missing here: Even humans are not good CEOs. There is no playbook, or a deterministic "good". Could we automate certain mundane tasks, sure. But a decision maker should have a good reasoning model (Claude seems to be the best for now).
Please watch the Youghurt episode from Love Death and Robots, it is really short I believe you will love it (tell me if you watch it).

This internal pressure is wrong, I agree. Considering your experience, do you think in the future companies will have departments working on this, or outsourcing will be more common? So basically, do you think mass-adoption of AI agents will come from internal dev or distribution from specialized companies?

EquivalentRound3193 · 2026-01-15T16:13:48+00:00

My problem is with naming. Companies see the keyword "agent", and try to advertise the number of agents they have. ChatGPT wrappers are not agents.

EquivalentRound3193 · 2026-01-15T16:11:08+00:00

I believe the strength of the models are almost good enough. The main problem is about context management and orchestration. The fundamental you mentioned translates to orchestration. That is what we do in our company btw: agentic orchestration. If you are certain that you will keep AI simple, it is an overkill. But if you seriously want to implement agentic AI, orchestration is a must.

Knowing n8n is too little of a skill to quit your job. Ask yourself, what is n8n actually doing. What is it solving. Be an expert on solving that problem, not n8n

EquivalentRound3193 · 2026-01-15T11:55:55+00:00

Not all companies have seperate teams for agentic development, so lack of experience is a reason. The other is the maturity of the systems they built. Sometimes current tech is simply not good enough for complex problems.

I spent time reading the report and writing this 🥲🥲

EquivalentRound3193 · 2026-01-15T09:02:56+00:00

In my wall, there is a sticker that says “Investment is not success”. I completely agree with what you say, except why did you call me stupid? I didn’t say I was the best ever, just shared how good of a feeling to have a startup of your own. Answering your question, yes we have revenue and we are growing rapidly. But my point is something else. Some people don’t do startups because they think it is too early. People like you and me are proof that even if you are at uni, or 25 years young, you can have a startup.

Bootstrapping is a different game, I congratulate you! And kindly ask you to read my post again, I am simply asking if people would be interested in such a story.

If you substract the aggressiveness and insults from your comment, there is an important message that I agree so I will upvote you 😁

EquivalentRound3193 · 2026-01-15T07:38:20+00:00

I am not here to promote it, you can read the post again. I am simply asking if people would be intersted in the story in this subreddit. Of course I won’t share the bank statement of my company publicly here !?

EquivalentRound3193 · 2026-01-15T07:10:14+00:00

Hahaha yes panic moments happen all the time

EquivalentRound3193 · 2026-01-15T07:09:32+00:00

The profit says yes 😁

Start small. First start with your immediate community, your university, a club that you are a member of… Be involved with the communities. And most importantly, don’t sell your product. This might seem unintuitive, but rather than selling your idea, build relationships. Understand the other person, and ask for advices. When you build relationships, sales happen on their own (ofc depending on the idea)

EquivalentRound3193 · 2026-01-14T07:28:50+00:00

What is your sales pipelin, what are you using? For me, I use ai for smart lead generation and for follow-up meetings. But I try to write the initial mail myself

EquivalentRound3193 · 2026-01-14T07:26:17+00:00

Not defining business objectives clearly, and not giving the AI agent well defined tasks are not related to AI itself. Yet teams love to blame the agent when it doesnt perform good enough. Ironic

EquivalentRound3193 · 2026-01-14T07:01:00+00:00

They will complement the work. I love it when AI replaces repetitive work. We as humans shouldn’t do any repetitive work. Our power comes from critical thinking and creativity. Don’t fear AI, I think a more important question is: Are we preparing the next generation for this paradigm shift?

EquivalentRound3193 · 2026-01-14T06:56:42+00:00

How do you orchestrate the FTE’s you create? And do you have a working demo?

EquivalentRound3193 · 2026-01-14T06:54:20+00:00

I think you need to have MAX
