Please! Don’t start a business

2 min readApr 26, 2024

Alright, listen up. You see all these gurus online talking about “get rich quick schemes” and “building a business is easy”? Forget that!, Cause it’s a lie

Building something real takes work. Hard work. The kind of work that makes you question your sanity at 3 AM, wondering if that extra cup of coffee was a good idea.

But here’s the thing: nobody ever tells you the real truth about business. They sugarcoat it, and make it sound like everything fvcking thing is easy.

That’s why so many people jump in headfirst, then get surprised when things get real.

So, here’s the harsh (or you can call it real) truth about business:

It’s a long game:

Forget overnight success stories.
Overnight success takes hundreds of nights. Building a successful business takes time, dedication, and hard work.
There will be setbacks, roadblocks, and moments where you just want to throw your fcking laptop out of the window (yeah, I feel that too).
But that’s what it takes to be someone great and to build something great.

Sacrifices Gotta Be Made:

Building a business requires sacrifice. Late nights, weekends spent hustling, maybe even putting your social life on hold.
Are you ready to put in the work? (it’s easy for introverts thou)

Customers are never easy!:

You don’t understand until you are experiencing, some customers are a nightmare.
They’ll complain, they’ll fucking irritate you, and they’ll test your patience.
Learn to deal with it. Because keeping your customers happy is the only way to sustain.

You Gotta Learn to Adapt:

The business world is constantly changing. New trends emerge, technologies evolve, and what worked yesterday might not work tomorrow.
Be flexible, be willing to adapt, and never stop learning.

It’s Not About You, It’s About Them:

It’s easy to get caught up in your own vision. But a successful business is all about solving your customer’s problems.
Focus on their needs, their wants, and their pain points. That’s the important thing for success.

Look, business ain’t easy. It’s an Indian street road with its fair share of ups and downs.
