It really depends on what your motivation is, if your motivation is just money and you have reached a comfortable level then why try to push yourself more? Enjoy life!
I know that money is only one of my motivations, the other is to build something great to prove that I can do it. Like climbing a mountain or running a marathon, it's not about making tons of money but proving that I can accomplish one of the more difficult things in life (building a wildly successful business). Even if I had all the money I needed I would keep trying to do what I am doing, and eventually hope to do it over and over again.
- dottedmag 16y agoHow do you find the stuff that worth doing? Every time I try to do something I figure out it is already done by somebody else with a great mastership.
- javery 16y agoMy current project competes with Google, AOL, Microsoft, and about 20 other companies... but I think there is a great niche they are under-serving that I am working on targeting. In existing markets you can almost always improve on the existing technology, target a niche, or offer a lower priced offering. Or go create your own market with a new type of product or service. I don't think anyone is untouchable nowadays, look at DuckDuckGo taking on Google!
- jacquesm 16y ago> My current project competes with Google, AOL, Microsoft, and about 20 other companies... Sounds like you have your work cut out for you then, makes me wonder why you have time to post here ;) With that sort of competition I figure you'll be the most overworked person on the planet by years end!
- javery 16y agoI'm definitely busy, but its all about who you are targeting. Most web apps now are competing with most of the big companies in some way or another.
