How’s your startup?

According to Penelope Trunk, doing a startup is like nothing. (I’ve had the exact quote, but can’t find it now) I must say I never really believed that, but to be honest - it’s true. I’ve recently mentioned about my venture and I have to admit that doing a startup is never as easy as you think it will be. After all the entry level emotions and ideas are gone, you just sit and think, think and then think some more. Wherever you are, whatever you do, you can’t stop thinking about your startup and if there’s any chance of doing something more to make it work. Two things never change though: lack of money and time. Even if you can think of something brilliant, there’s high probability that you don’t have enough time or money to do it.

I’m not talking about a startup with huge investment cash and I imagine finding someone, who’s willing to invest in your startup makes some things easier. You have more cash to finance your ideas and you can hire more people, which helps reduce the time needed to implement your ideas to life.

Speaking of hiring, read this if you haven’t already. I’ll share some thoughts on that matter next time.
