The reality is that a lot of people jump off the cliff and get started and they don't really have a clear roadmap for what they are trying to do. They just start. That's okay if you want to try some experiments, but if you start getting some expenses and you don't have a clear plan for how you're going to generate enough revenue to cover those, that's setting you up for failure."
