"One want to find someone who not only loves him / her, but lets themselves experience love and doesn’t worry about the chances of things actually working out.

Yes, Relationships are like start-ups.  If you join one because you think it will be successful, versus just joining one because its interesting, worthwhile, and its something you’re passionate about—regardless of its ultimate chance of success—then you shouldn’t be in one.

Well… Ideas, by themselves, are worthless. Unless there is proper execution, ideas will go nowhere. To execute, you need focus and persistence. Unwavering focus on your ultimate goal.

While some of the aspiring entrepreneurs wither away trying to find that ‘perfect idea’, several others suffer from a different syndrome - one that can be attributed to ‘too many ideas’. These idea whores cant stop coming up with new business ideas. They tend to get so overwhelmed with all the new ideas, that the net result is that they cant focus on implementing any single one of them. As soon as they start implementing one idea, their mind wavers to the ‘next big thing’. At the end of the day, they’ve not properly explored a single idea.

I’ll admit - I’ve succumbed to this wavering myself, a couple of times.

HCM is my first enterprepreneurial experience, I’ve learnt one very valuable lesson - based on my discussions with my partners who are successful entrepreneurs and several other successful entrepreneurs and businessmen.

Entrepreneurship takes discipline and persistence. Everyone gets ideas. Ideas are cheap and easy - executing on a particular idea is the difficult part.
