> I’d die of embarrassment and I’d just be sad about wasting my time. Welcome to entrepreneurship! Doing something hard knowing very well that it's most likely is going to be a waste of time is just part of the game. Every once in a while, you may strike gold and make it big. But a lot of the times, you strike silver and it's just promising enough to keep you going. Striking silver is the exact "waste of time" failure mode you want to avoid. I speak from experience when I say that I blew ~3 years of my career chasing after a product idea that hovered just at breakeven. In hindsight, I should have given up in the first 3 months and moved on to something else. But you won't know until you release something to users. Don't give up before you start, obviously.
