Wow! I knew that pursuing entrepreneurship wouldn't be easy, but I never expected to be challenged so much on a daily basis. Maybe my assumption was that I would be challenged in big ways relatively infrequently. That's not turning out to be the case.
I am finding myself face-to-face with a new challenge every day as I work with my fellow co-founders to shape our product, get in touch with customers, and raise money. Our company, Vintake Media, is developing a video distribution platform that will enable content hosts to cut costs dramatically while maintaining their quality of video.
Online video is a hot space right now, and I have to admit that I feel a pang of fear every time I read another article about a start-up company that will potentially compete with us. Sometimes I just want to keep my head buried in the sand and not have any idea what our competitors are doing. I'd sleep better at night.. but I guess good CEOs aren't destined to sleep much.
