For sure. I'm fortunate to at least have a couple friends I can bounce anything off, even if it's just talking to myself sometimes. As far as keeping the fire alive, I've had little trouble thus far. In fact, the fire's done nothing but increase in intensity for the most part. However when you have a lot of free time, that's perhaps natural. Being too tired to do anything else outside of job and a long-overdue social/romantic life is a very real concern. The other side of that coin is grinding to a halt on startup progress because my personal life is in tatters. I suppose it's like anything else, where you make time for whatever is most important and practice effective time management. Arguably the more ambition you have, the better your time management must be. Which is ironic because some of the best ideation and thinking in my experience has come from a lack of structure. Then again, no reason one can't schedule unstructured thinking time when needed.
