Entering into a new business venture can be a lot like starting a new relationship: both endeavors are exciting and often romanticized beyond reality. Aspiring entrepreneurs may have dreams of innovation beyond the nine-to-five workplace, but, before jumping into a startup, self-evaluation is key. One has to know oneself before starting a business from the ground up, otherwise, it’s easy to overestimate what can be accomplished. Plans for what to achieve may not be as easy as thought or even possible.
