There is also this elitist vibe that comes from posts like these. The message is that she've worked so hard, she is extremely passionate, and she is willing to neglect her family and her teeth to pursue what she has in mind, therefore she is more worthy of the success then others. Truth is, there are many factors in play, lots out the control of the people and few are, working hard is a really minor factor, many people work hard everyday, they get nowhere really. Also, a lot those founders climb on the shoulders of many workers and investors (like the wework guy)...I'm not a fan of this culture at all.
