ENTREPRENEURSHIP: PAIN TOLERANCE

I’ve said this before, but it seems to me that the difference between entrepreneurs and other people, is largely (a) pain tolerance (b) extraordinary competitiveness and (c) unhealthy confidence bordering on ruthlessness.

I mean, I’m burning through a tremendous amount of money building Oversing. It HURTS just to think about it. It hurts largely because of how hard I had to work to make that money.

But the flip side is that I can control it, and make it what I want it to be, without compromise. And If I’m reasonably successful, my return on investment will be about 100x or so.

Entrepreneurship isn’t for the weak or the timid. That’s for sure.
