There's this meme in the startup community of founders making large sacrifices and taking huge risks to keep a startup dream from dying. Just because you take large risks doesn't mean you will be rewarded for them. Much like buying millions of dollars worth of lotto tickets will probably end in a bad outcome.
So instead of rushing with a cofounder to force a brilliant idea out, just keep working on your skills. One of the most important skills is recognizing good opportunities. Constantly refine yourself, keeping your eyes open, and pounce when a good opportunity presents itself.

- boniface316 11y agoMy definition of actively waiting is that you keep building something. Initially me and my co- started building our version of Amazon dash. We helped each other. This allowed me to learn his character and he learned mine. Then we came up with an idea. While he was taking care of tech, I would simply work on business administration stuff. Also just apply for grants, you dont have to submit it, but you will know how to do it.
