Hey guys! Officially leaving the corporate 9-5 and taking the plunge into a business idea I’ve had.
I would stay at the job while I start, but I have a 5 hour total commute each day leaving no time for work.
Any advice you can give a dude about to give a new venture a crack? 😆

Nice this is the moment right here. 5 hour commute is dead time where you could be building something way more valuable. The fact that you have a business idea ready means you already did the thinking which is harder than people realize. Go for it and use Runable to automate backend workflows while you test product market fit
I took the leap 16 years ago, while it’s never been easy it’s always been worth it. Best of luck to you.
You need to be resilient. Don’t give in to discouragement. Remind yourself every time why it was important to venture into entrepreneurship
Here’s wishing you all the best! Three pieces of advice for you:
1-Know your numbers. It’s easy to chase a passion and lose track of your margins. Profitability is never optional.
2-Prioritize growing your reputation over growing your audience.
3-Build repeatable success-make sure that your work is as process-centered as it can be, or it’ll feel like chaos pretty soon.
You’ve got this, stay strong!
Get a Tesla and build your startup during the commute.
I can’t wait until I can say the same. Just a couple more months
Well done taking the first step.
You’ve already achieved more than 80% of people who have ever had the dream of doing their own thing.
Onwards… Be busy, make a difference..
