More often than not, you hear all the great, fairy tale endings of how an entrepreneur made millions by selling his startup etc.
However, seldom do folks discuss the emotional and physical toll it takes on the entrepreneur.
Here’s a great blog post by Jason Nazar, founder CEO of DocStoc.com, who describes some of the downsides of being an entrepreneur. Its an amazing read – do give it a dekko.
Everybody wants to be an entrepreneur because they think it gives them real freedom, no-boss, exciting, challenging nature of work, etc. But it is very difficult to succeed(=make great money). Not all entrepreneurs enjoy that kind of money, 95-97% of the fail. Only the minuscule fraction succeeds.
Thanks for sharing.
Yes it is true.The kind of stress,solitude that one has to face in the initial stages of company is really challenging.
