Entrepreneurs Are Difficult At Best And Abrasive at Worst ? Get Over It

The greatest entrepreneurs follow their gut and as a result are perceived as difficult at best and abrasive at worst. Most people who know me say I?m too diplomatic, but last week my advisor told me that someone asked him if I was ?difficult?. His answer was ?if Ash was difficult, I wouldn?t work with him." I was going to write something on the matter, but felt that doing so would make me come across as, you know, difficult. But after a recent brief discussion this week with a fellow executive ended in disagreement, I thought to myself: ?well that guy?s definitely going to think I?m difficult?, even though only a fool would have accepted his offer. It reminded me of that Chris Rock line: ?What?s sexual harassment? When an ugly guy wants to get some?" Well, what's being difficult? When someone doesn't give you what you want?
