What's the #1 thing that keeps you awake at night when building your startup? 😴

For us it's the monitoring of our product performance every day being that early in our journey.

    Growth ideas! I feel like there has to be a way to make it work but it's so hard

    Top concern:
    This is all a massive waste of time and I should just work on getting up the corporate ladder.

    Secondary concern:
    The insecurity of building without validation and not being able to validate without building.

    As an entrepreneur, my brain becomes a bustling marketplace of thoughts with each idea vying for attention, shouting, "Pick me! I'm the one that will change the game!"
    Its a constant battle to prioritize, refine, and execute the right ideas.

    Just when I'm about to doze off, a light bulb flickers, yet again, illuminating a new strategy or a brilliant marketing concept. My mind races, and suddenly, Im wide awake, scribbling notes in the dark lol. Its like being caught in a whirlwind of inspiration, where sleep is ever elusive haha

    But I guess, that's the thrilling part of the startup journey, isn't it? The adrenaline rush that comes from chasing dreams and building something from scratch. So yes, while it keeps me awake at night, its also what keeps me fueled and driven during the day.

    Im sure all the indiehackers here feel the same :)

    My biological clock. I know I will make it with my startup but I am not sure I will be able to have my biological children before my parts decay.
