If you make the leap, you will be tested almost every day by the grind, the loneliness, and the horrible feeling of ending the day knowing you did not get enough done. The truth is, no one should start a company unless they must, unless the idea will not let go of them, unless the problem keeps them up at night, unless they are willing to pay the price and not just chase the prize. Entrepreneurship is not for the curious. It is for the convicted. No matter where you are on the journey, pause and ask yourself: if you knew this company was destined to fail, if the dream never materialized, and the problem remained unsolved, would you still choose to do it? If the answer is yes, you are exactly where you need to be.
