The thing that gives me a high is dealing with setbacks.
Setbacks across closing deals, building a team, raising capital or trying different experiments.
Entrepreneurship is one of the few professions where setbacks are often because market is a great equaliser. It doesn't care what you have accomplished previously. It only looks for how will you help it today move forward, faster.
Setbacks also help me learn a little more about myself and how I am as a person under pressure. Every setback reveals a little more about myself to me.
On the flip side, when you succeed, the joy is that much more as well.
For me, entrepreneurship is a journey of successes and set backs. The idea is to survive till the point where ultimately, your successes are a little more than set backs.
There are no endings, no credit roll, no happily ever after - just riding a wave - sometimes with it and other times against it. And that gives me a high.
