50%+/- of your investors, co-workers and customers aren't going to agree with you on most issues. I understand it can be troubling to work with someone who has a different view but I try to let everyone have their opinion and just ignore the polarized political landscape when it comes to business.

Granted there are red lines where maybe you just don't want to be involved. But keep in mind every company, startup and set of investors is going to have people coming down on both sides of the many issues everyone is dealing with today.

I try to be positive and keep an open mind and not get involved in sharing my opinions on hot button topics in my business life. It's a tough world out there right now.
