Being a solopreneur myself I think the hardest part is maintaining and improving what you've built. For makers the rush dies pretty quickly once the idea is validated (with praise, press or downloads) or invalidated (nobody cares). Unfortunately, the journey only truly begins after that point and everything upto it really doesn't matter because even if your are on the frontpage of HN/PH it's not that big of a deal after a week.. But doing support, handling feedback, doing the boring stuff like content marketing, seo, optimizing conversions and worst of all waiting is the part that matters. The stuff that really makes your product incrementally into a business but which you can't see happen (like a flower bloom).
