I fully agree with you Vivek. When I started my first startup on on-demand homecare, the leaders I spoke with told me it was not a business that would work. My parents and husband thought that I was crazy to give up my promising career to start a company that would not last and I would end up losing all of my savings. But I know the idea would work out, and I hope that it would become a company that can touch many lives and make people's lives better. I had to learn diaper change, bed sponging, showering for elderly, etc. for the first time. It was a very tough business as we are dealing with people's lives and the expectations from the care recipients and family members are high. But it is the hope that kept me going and it is now doing quite okay.
Now in my second startup, it is the hope of changing the lives of the special needs persons positively that keeps me going. Hope is a very powerful energy that can help us stay positive and overcome challenges.
Having said, we must also be able to apply wisdom in making decisions.
