Every year, thousands of entrepreneurs chase the startup dream, convinced their idea will be the next unicorn. Yet 90% crash before reaching profitability. What separates the Facebooks from the failures? It's not luck, timing, or even brilliance-it's understanding that entrepreneurship is fundamentally about serving others, not yourself. Before you quit your job and dive into the startup world, you need to grasp a counterintuitive truth: becoming a CEO doesn't put you at the top of a pyramid. Instead, everyone becomes your boss-employees, customers, partners, and investors all demand your attention. This reality check matters because building a company will consume 5-10 years of your life. You'd better have the right reasons for starting. Two elements must align before you begin: passion and aptitude. Passion means you're compelled to solve a particular problem; aptitude means you're qualified to solve it. Without both, you're setting yourself up for years of misery. The best startup ideas solve problems you personally experience. If you're not your own customer, you must get extraordinarily close to those who are. Answer this question honestly: "Why now?" If your solution would have worked equally well five years ago or could wait five years, you're missing something crucial. Target small but rapidly growing markets rather than large stagnant ones. Build something a small group of users desperately loves, not something many users merely like. When customers are desperate for a solution, they'll embrace even imperfect products.
