It’s glorified. Nobody speaks about the behind the scenes - not knowing if you’re going to make it, but still putting in the hours. Learning to deal with failure and embracing it (exceptionally difficult the first couple of times)
The emotional strain can really take a toll on you. But when you start experiencing success it all starts to make sense.
Ps. This was a bit of an emotional rant🙃
Your rant is welcomed and I totally agree with you. The "grind" can be stressful emotionally. It requires discipline, slight delusion in order to bring something to life that doesn't exist yet (your business) and emotional intelligence.
I find getting some rest and taking time away from helps, but it also makes me feel guilty.
