There's always a lot of talk about what the biggest challenges of founders are and how to overcome them, but we all have our own reasons for why we do it.
For me, the pace at which I'm learning and the incredibly talented and driven people in the startup community outweigh the hardships.
What's your take? Would you choose to be a maker and founder all over again?
