My thoughts on the “entrepreneur’s dilemma” as described by Randi Zuckerberg:

Does it ring true for me?

In a word yes.

And it’s not just ‘the entrepreneur’s dilemma’:

My cousin is a Fund Manager in Private Equity
He sacrifices sleep and fitness. He gets v.little of both
My friend is a Doctor
He sacrifices friends and often family
My uncle is a business owner ($3–5 mill USD per year)
He sacrifices fitness and friends
My dad used to work 100+ hours a week for his kids (story here on Quora)
He sacrificed his friends and his ‘career’ for his family
