Starting a business is path to experiencing the extremes of emotions–the extreme negative ones are a sacrifice, but the extreme positive ones are a gift. You take time from leisure activities, but if you enjoy and believe in what you are doing, that time can be a net win. You lose some friends, but you gain others. You lose money along the way, and you make money.

If you are going to start a business, look at the balance in sacrifices and rewards, and the form your life takes along the way.

Man i have literally sacrificed every want of mine to save money for my futuer and now i only spend when i go out with my friends ones or twice month Now i dont even feel like sacrifice something to save money i just started to love saving money

Almost went broke 2x. Use to be afraid of failing, now small doses of it are a like hack.

Honestly a lot - I gave up a close relationship with my family, gave up a social life and gave up compassion and emotions.

I’m obsessed with the game and am willing to give up however much it takes to be the best.
