I recently wrapped up winding down the company I started four years ago. Here’s a long post on some of the hard-fought lessons I learned from building marketplaces and crypto apps. https://blog.jaymehoffman.com/four-years-of-pivots

Thank you for sharing! Personally one reason I haven’t founded a venture scale business is that I am not in love with one problem and one customer so much that I want to block 5-10 years for it. Was fun to read through your take on that feeling

Yea, it's a tough one. I think there are multiple paths to falling in love with a customer or problem. You either have it from the very beginning or find it along the way because your solution is growing or working. Some questions I've thought about recently related to this: - Do you love this customer and/or problem? - Would you want to work on this for 5-10 years? - Would you be excited to be on the front cover of the industry magazine? - Has your life led up to your working on this? And can it be your life's work?

"Would you want to work on this for 5-10 years?" is my guiding question beyond is this fun to me. I think the latter "has your life led up to you workign on this" is a consequence of the first 2/3 questions Life's work to me is interesting, I think most people don't know what their lifework is / will be until it's somewhat done
