Why is it not so easy to start a business?

In this day and age, entrepreneurship is no longer a new topic. Every time the news of the death of an entrepreneur comes out, it will cause huge waves. On the one hand, it is due to their own influence, and on the other hand, it is for the people in the circle.

For other entrepreneurs, this will have a certain resonance in their hearts.

Mao Kankan, who was born in Beijing in 1983, is a role model for those born in the 1980s: a junior high school graduate, the fourth IT master in Beijing, an investment of 300 million, and one of the first batch of entrepreneurs.

Every label drove him to move forward, and in the end it became increasingly difficult. The bankruptcy of the e-sports project led to him having no choice but to commit suicide.

Starting a business is not a treat. Only those who have experienced it will understand the difficulties behind it.

I have heard from many entrepreneurs that the most unbearable pressures they have experienced generally include the following: company performance.

This is the first pressure that entrepreneurs face. It is not difficult to understand that when starting a company, you need to make money, face investors and partners, and support employees.

Office space, equipment, wages, five insurances and one housing fund...there is a large amount of fixed expenses every day when you wake up.

It can be said that all entrepreneurs or entrepreneurs have had times when they couldn't sleep in the face of performance.

The capital chain is broken.

This was also the straw that "forced" Mao Kankan to death.

When many entrepreneurs face a rupture in their capital chain, in order to keep the company alive, they usually seek financing, go to banks, and find VCs. The same thing happened when Wang Jianlin stood downstairs for two hours under the president of the bank.

In every entrepreneur.

At the end of the road, I started to doubt myself.

The difficulty of starting a business is due to the uncertainty of path and goals, which often makes people suffer in the process. Is this choice the right one?

Can it be done?

Always having self-doubt will make you timid when doing things, leaving you breathless and even depressed.

Maybe just one of the above is enough to overwhelm ordinary people. Since starting a business is so fortunate and difficult, why do more and more young people want to start a business now?

Hope work can be more flexible.

Many entrepreneurs start out because they don’t want to work nine to five and want a flexible job.

But in fact, a real entrepreneur works 24 hours a day. After starting a business, you just have the flexibility to focus all your time and energy on your project.

I feel that what my current boss is doing is stupid, and I want to try to be my own boss.

Today's young people have personalities and ideas, and many of them are quite capable. They can't stand the stupid decisions made by their companies and are unwilling to bow to their bosses.

But after you start a business, everyone is your boss. You have to please your employees, customers, partners and investors...make more money and have greater influence.

Of course, this is a more practical reason. In today's materialistic era, even my hometown, a fourth-tier city, is being compared with others, let alone life in a big city.
