The kernel of my start-up came when I was working in that incredibly secure, decently rewarding corporate job. I lead a project to help our CEO incentivise the sales force to bring in more profitable clients. During that project, I saw a great opportunity, not just in my company, but in the industry in general. I was not able to work on this idea inside the company but the thought of it still consumed all of my time. So, I decided to start my own business to solve this problem. The reason was that I was going insane from thinking about this all of the time and not being able to act on it. I've got plenty of other problems now that I never had at my safe job, but at least I get to chart a course for my own life now.
