Doodling
a business idea for some time now... make sure you are ready for the jump
before you actually jump... here is a quick test:
1 1) You like
chaos, challenges and setbacks
2 2) You like
corner place, command and easy cheques
If you
have selected 1), I think you should continue reading...
You
should be ready to forgo vacations and do more work than a 9-6 job offer. You
will be forced to change your role from a strategist to a clerical admin
without changing your seat.
And on
the softer side if you embrace your start-up with all your time and energy, be
ready to miss the hugs and kisses from your home partner.
And on
the harder side reality can suck... your sales presentations face repeated rejections
and your potential buyers turn you down. Every nerve will be strained and
tested as if you need to prove to them that you are still in and want to
succeed. You better hang on!
And the
toughest part is that you need to do this not just for days or weeks or
months... buddy it could be for years... if things work out well... it will be
less than 8 years!
Forgive me for yet another motherhood statement: “Achieving
'overnight success in business' takes a few long years!!”
