It is. And it helps a lot if you happen to like hard work. It's what separates the workers from the dreamers. Just about everybody has a good idea, but without the hard work to get it off the ground and moving, a good idea is more or less pointless.

Which part do you think is the hardest

Opened a restaurant with my family and sold it after year, also gained 30 pounds that year. Never again. You have to be passionate about whatever business you start, because it really is hard work.

You are right about that. It is not easy and you really have to grind in the early years. But it is totally worth it in the long run.

Do I need to inform about my matrimonial disputes or should I keep quiet? How does background verification team consider this.

I have a business idea in the VR/AR space utilizing AI. However, I lack skill sets to evaluate viability or to create an MVP. Neither do I have a network to tap into.

My plan is taking classes to deepen my knowledge while joining and actively participating in communities to find collaborators.

Does this approach make sense or do you recommend other approaches? If it makes sense, do you have any recommendations for classes or communities?

Look forward to hearing your experiences and wisdom!
