8 inevitabilities when you startup in Bangladesh

As you guys may know I have a technology startup since 2012, I faced lots of trials. I’m the Founder and CMO of T-ZONE (360° t-shirt service provider in Bangladesh with eommerce). And I saw a lot of ups and down for my startup.

1. Your family members will say bad things to you regularly the first 2 to 3 years. There will be no one to see your tears.
2. When you are in trouble, no one will be there to help you, friends and family members will go far away.
3. You will have no idea about what time it is, or which day it is, day or night?
4. There is no breakfast, lunch or dinner for us! It’s brunch or brunchinner.
5. You will see changes in your behaviors.
6. Most important and intolerable, partnership businesses will become proprietorships. All your partners will sleep all day long and you will have to live like a “one man Army”.
7. Insomnia will be your close friend. You will have to be a night owl if your startup is related to IT.
8. Your girlfriend/boyfriend will leave you. Why they will stay with a busy human being like you when you don’t have time for them?

I don’t know if these warnings helped or not. These are some important points I found in the last two years. What about you? Is it similar in your country?
