Congratulations on your successful exit and thanks for posting this. Sometimes it's hard to read these things and think they are true, but they are. Yesterday, I was thinking, "Why am I doing this? Why do I work so hard for ~nothing?" and then it dawned on me that if it isn't hard, it isn't worth anything. If it was easy, everyone else could do it. If everyone else can do it, why would they pay you to do it? They won't. It has to be hard. You have to feel the pain. You have to lie awake at night wondering if you're crazy -- YOU ARE! Keep being crazy. Do the crazy things, the impossible things and keep doing them until you have something someone thinks is worth buying and then sell it and go on vacation, until you get bored with that and then do it all over again!
