I ask this with genuine curiosity, not to be negative.
When starting a business, how do you differentiate between when you have a good idea that you need to keep pushing and persevering with, compared to when your idea is stupid?
You drown out the negative talks and surround yourself with positivity and motivation.
'Don't give up!'
'The harder you work for something, the greater you'll feel when you achieve it!'
'Good things come to those who go out and get it!'
You're in the desert, you have no feed back loop, the market isn't buying your idea... but you're convinced it meets CENTS you're like 'I gotta persevere! #hustle'
Being blunt, how do you know when your idea is just plain dumb and you need to drop it?
For example, make successful entrepreneurs say they had multiple failures before their success. How did they / you know when to stop and change course?
I'm hoping for some insightful wisdom and perspective from fastlaners, since they've been there and got the t-shirt.
