"Never save anything for the swim back"
I read this blog post on my friend's startup called Yana.
In it, the author talks about his thoughts on how to really push himself running.
One section is entitled "Never save anything for the swim back" - it talks about how in the movie Gattaca, Ethan Hawk's character is able to beat his genetically-superior brother at a race. His brother asks him, "How are you doing this?" to which Ethan's character replies, "I never saved anything for the swim back."
Watching the clip on YouTube sorta gives me chills. To me, this statement is the embodiment of what it takes to be a startup entrepreneur.
