Founder mode or not, why is it always the assumption  that everyone’s greatest aspiration should be to become a founder?

When I was growing up, anyone who wasn’t trying to quit their stable job to become an entrepreneur was frowned upon.

When I started working in film, the dominant idea was that every director/producer should dream of being independent and having their own production company.

Now everyone needs to be a founder. Why? Very few are actually cut out for this.
I’m just a little tired of this narrative being pushed on us that you’re either a visionary one-person show or a total loser. 

There are so many exciting options below the founder lever that never get the credit/respect they deserve. People get stuck in this “feeling of underperformance” loops when they shouldn’t be.

mm no i think you're in a bubble. my family discouraged it and my friends thought it was not real. i celebrate other people because they've gone through their own trials as a common thread of founding, proud to work toward something in such a way
