Rob - I upvoted you because you had some great insights, but I disagree some on "making a budget of time or money until reaching a win scenario" - in my experience, success is totally nonlinear. You slave away, and then make major breakthroughs. In business, any sort of milestones that correlate to anything won't match the real world. It's key you get some proof of concept (is this valuable to anyone? who is going to pay me? why?). Once you've got proof of concept and you're behind your idea, you then hustle like a motherfucker until you win. If your general concept is a winner, and you hustle like a motherfucker, you win eventually.
