11 Emotional Stages of Starting Your Own Business

Euphoria

1

This idea is gonna change everything – the best thing since Netflix! Wide-Eyed Optimism

2

My team is so awesome, the office is so awesome. Screw hierarchy! Screw depressing office furniture! Everything we do craps rainbows and butterflies! That First Dollar

3

Cha-ching! I’m treating tonight because we’re makin’ it rain. Reality Check

4

Okay, I’m juggling quite a lot, but it’ll be fine. Just need to stay motivated. Obsession and Exhaustion

5

Why can’t I think about anything else? What is sleep?! Dwindling Optimism

6

Why doesn’t anyone like my idea? Please give me money – would rather die than go back to that cubicle!” Irrevocable Depletion of Optimism

7

WHY DID I GET MYSELF INTO THIS?! WHY DOES EVERYTHING I TOUCH DIE?! WHAT WAS WRONG WITH MY CUBICLE ANYWAY?! Burnout

8

No. Can’t. Ray of Hope

9

This person wants to give me money? Hey, I must be doing something right! Let Me Be Smug

10

 

I knew this idea was going to work all along. It’s going to change everything. All Worth It

11

And repeat.

icon_hacks_b Created with Sketch. Garage Blog Between Passion and Pragmatism: Interview With Zev, the Artist Behind The 33PRESS

As part of our #BeTheChange series, we sit down and discuss how work has evolved, with change-makers in our Garage Community. 

 

This week we chat with Zev, an artist and lighting consultant. She uses The 33PRESS moniker for her artistic endeavors, and prefers to remain anonymous! 

 

We chat about finding fulfillment, creating balance, and embracing discomfort in a cut-throat city like Hong Kong.
