4） It'll Teach You the Importance of Passion
Founders often call it quits when they just aren't passionate about an idea anymore. For example, Kiko, an online calendar application recently sold their business for a number of reasons including lack of passion. Richard White, cofounder of Kiko stated,
“I won't get into all of the dynamics of the situation, but, in a nutshell, we had lost our spark and were letting our users down by not improving the product the way we should have.
He later also said,
“The team was burned out and we decided that it was time to find someone else to carry the torch.”
Starting a business and quickly realizing that it isn't your passion is definitely better than waiting for the perfect moment to start a business that you may not be interested in anyways.
四、它會告訴你，保持激情很重要
一旦對某個想法不再抱有激情，創(chuàng)業(yè)者往往會選擇退出。在線日歷Kiko最近賣掉了。原因有很多，其中之一就是缺乏激情。Kiko的聯(lián)合創(chuàng)始人Richard White聲稱：
“我無法全情投入了。簡單的說，我們喪失了思想的火花。我們沒能提升產(chǎn)品品質(zhì)，這導(dǎo)致了用戶的失望?！?BR> 后來他又說：
“整個團(tuán)隊(duì)已身心俱疲，我們覺得該把火炬?zhèn)鹘o旁人了?！?BR> 不管怎么說，開始一個項(xiàng)目，哪怕馬上發(fā)現(xiàn)它不是你所鐘情的，也絕對要比等到所謂“的”時(shí)機(jī)再開始一個你仍然可能不感興趣的項(xiàng)目好得多。
