Paraphrasing the best advice @paulg gave me: "Ask yourself if this startup is your life's work. Knowing you're in it for the long haul lets you settle into a calmer, more focused rhythm despite the daily ups and downs, as you trust you'll show up and make it succeed over time."

The strikes shake our city. 🇱🇧🇱🇧 They don’t shake our resilience. Yes our morning ritual now is to wake up to check on our loved ones and to ask ‘ Are you ok?’ ‘Are they alive ?’ We then shake it off and rally the support - from all corners of the world - to the young souls on the ground - providing shelter, blankets, food, hope, love. To see the people opening their homes to the displaced, to stay united during these crippling times, to share our grief but not allow it to slow us down. That’s the Lebanese spirit - creative, beautiful, elegant, enterprising - always seeking to move forward. Reach out if you can and want to help. #AjamiFoundation

Thank you to many friends and new friends that have reached out to help in the past week.
