If @dsiroker were on Farcaster, here would be my answer to him: (1) fear, (2) fear, (3) fear. I'm not a founder but I've worked closely with many over the years. You ARE a founder though, what's your take? https://x.com/dsiroker/status/1755622803343032760?s=46

The barrier to entry of entrepreneurship has moved drastically, especially profit models. As a first-time founder, 1-yr in, I did not know I’d be up against all of this. And that’s a good thing. But most don’t even know where to begin. I didn’t. Thankfully I was early to Farcaster.

1. Not everyone has the drive to become an entrepreneur. 2. Freedom to do what you’re passionate about is risky as heck and most people are risk averse. 3. People are lazy; will rather take a steady paycheck and complain than go after their visions and dreams.

1) not knowing where rent or mortgage will come from next month is really hard 2) selling is hard but the most important skill - sell to investors, sell to customers, sell to family 3) there are mind boggling levels of tedium when resources are scare & it’s all on you; tax, hr, hosting, invoices, registration, law

Fear and self belief. Fear is number 1 for sure, everything else is downstream of it.

I would say fear and comfort go hand in hand in roadblocks to becoming an entrepreneur
