I've been in this situation for six months or so and it worked well for me. My best advice is to surround yourself with people who are excited about your product and can give you feedback. In my case, I had a customer who was very excited about the product, technical peers who I would bounce ideas off of, and a supportive family that wants me to succeed. Plus, you need to have the drive to make the startup a reality. If you don't have drive, nothing will get done.
