This may come off as a reddit kind of comment, but it's ironic for me that my slightly scared state of mind became more apparent when I misinterpreted glimcat's comments in a negative light. I agree being 'scared' is rarely useful.
Also a related question to anybody who cares to answer. How often do people doing startups get scared or strongly discouraged. Is it much less often when working in a team. And the kind of well-knit team induced self-delusion which helps in hardships, also results in insularity which lead to the final downfalls- the kind we are seeing with RIM co-founders for instance.

The success ratio for startups is not very high. But the startup environment has a lot of perks, like working on interesting problems with highly enthusiastic people. Teams help, as does remembering to actually get out of the lab occasionally.
