𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗰 𝗔𝗻𝗱𝗿𝗲𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗻 𝗼𝗻 𝘄𝗵𝘆 𝘄𝗲 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱𝗻’𝘁 𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘂𝗿𝘀 Starting a business sounds exciting—freedom, success, impact. But here’s what no one tells you: It’s mostly pain. Marc Andreessen, one of the greatest investors, calls it a horror story, and he’s right. You need employees? They say no. You pitch investors? They ignore you. You fight for customers? They don’t care. A competitor shows up? They hit you hard. Your product finally works? Something breaks. It’s a never-ending cycle of rejection, failure, and firefighting. Yet, some people still do it. Not for the money. Not for the hype. They do it because they can’t imagine doing anything else. So before you start, ask yourself: Can I handle rejection every day? Am I ready for years of uncertainty? Do I have the patience to solve endless problems? If your answer isn’t a HELL YES, don’t do it. But if you read this and still feel an unstoppable urge to build—maybe, just maybe, you’re built for this. Follow Vishu Bheda for more valuable startup insights from the world's best founders!
