Should I start my own company?

You should start your own company if you have the motivation to work harder than you currently are working, to have less hours for yourself, and you have a vision for where you want that company to be in five years. Probably the most important factor is being willing to part with something now to have more of something later on.

The rewards of starting a company are great but only if you’re a hard worker with vision and patience. I’ve known many entrepreneurs who had lots of great qualities and work ethic, but little patience, and ended up making bad decisions because they wanted the company to be successful NOW rather than put in the time for it to be successful longer.
