7 Months Without a Job, Building My Own Path 🚀(I just want to vent so I will not Promote)

It’s been 7 months since I left employment, determined to crack something of my own. The first 3 months were about exploration—multiple ideas, countless iterations, and a lot of soul-searching. Then, I met my co-founders, and my tool started taking shape in November. Fast forward to today, and it’s been a month since our launch. We’re working relentlessly, pushing boundaries every day. But let’s talk about the other side of the journey—the part people don’t usually share: 😞 The demotivation when things don’t move as fast as you hoped. 💰 The financial pressure of running a startup without a stable income. 🏡 The family expectations—"Why not just go back to a job?"⏳ The lack of clarity—how long will this take? Will it even work? 💼 The temptation to go back to employment when the struggle gets overwhelming. No weekends. No leaves. No social life. Just the hope that one day, this will all be worth it. To anyone thinking of starting up—think 100 times before you dive in.It’s not easy. It’s not glamorous. And 99% of startups fail. But for those who choose this path—who fight through uncertainty, self-doubt, and the urge to quit—it’s the hope of building something meaningful that keeps us going. If you're on this journey too, let’s connect and share our learnings. This road is tough, but we keep moving. One step at a time.
