> How do you arrange your time when you are independent founders?
You're independent. You can make decisions about when you want to work according to your own needs, and the needs of your business.
> I have also read many stories about independent developers or founders. They are basically crazy work and crazy ships, and finally get a little results.
If you have sales - real sales, with customers paying money - you will have a lot more freedom to run the business the way you want, not according to others' perceived or actual expectations.
Yes, in theory, this is the case, but seeing that people around you work for a long time is inevitable, and you will be more anxious when you don’t see hope.
