Lack of discipline actually empowers me. That's an essential part of myself. Without that, I would have not created what I did.
The hardest part is to manage the unhappiness of people. Good news don't go to me. They are in their day-by-day jobs. But everything that is not working well goes up to me. So I have to deal. But that's not only being CEO of UiPath. It's being basically running any sort of company. Do you find it lonely? I am a lonely wolf. I find life pretty lonely, man.

So that's not only about this job, but I live mostly in my head, thinking, analyzing, reflecting. This is how I spend my life. So it's not only about being CEO. Even when I was a software engineer at Microsoft, I felt equally lonely.

Yeah, it's kind of hard, and I feel I am getting more and more disconnected. It's why it's hard. The more we get into our stuff, the more it's difficult into providing bits of information. If someone is asking me, what have you done today? I need two hours to give you context of my job, and then I can tell you what I did today. So I don't have these two hours. So let's talk about TV. It's easier.

I didn't live like a hedonistic life, and for many reasons. Not necessarily that I didn't want and I have a fantastic ethic about it, but it just happened that I didn't. So I had many years of anxiety. It was hard fighting with myself, fighting, you know, my way. I am wondering how it would have been to try to have fun in my 20s, in my 30s.

I don't know. There is something inside me that is, it's a more powerful aspect of myself that tells me, no, this is the right thing to do. And I always did. And it was so hard for me to work in Microsoft, especially the last couple of years. Because I felt I'm doing as a compromise for myself just to be capable of building later what I want to build. But I didn't want to do it.
