Your right it is easy to want to quit sometimes when the going gets rough, but so many times when I have pressed through and finished a project, it makes you stronger the next time and gives you experience for future projects to be able to avoid certain mistakes which then will help you in the future. Your Random observations are great, keep um coming :) I think that 31 & 38 totally go hand in hand.

Thanks for the great advice and sometimes we do just need to grin and bear certain things, but persistence is the key to success.

It strikes me that they did enter a rather tricky and competitive market though. Perhaps we'd look at it differently if they hadn't already had a home-run with Skype? I don't really know.

I see that they changed their model last October. I actually signed up a while ago but never used it because it took such a long time to get the app. Why isn't Joost a success?

It’s not about delivering one great blast. It’s about standing up, over and over again, even when you feel like there’s nothing left. It’s a battle of attrition, and few recognize this when they sign-up." Thanks for this! It's nice to know we're not alone. :) Great post. "Being an entrepreneur is like this.

I guess all of us have been there from time to time and it is hard and I am realizing more and more how life truly is difficult. Thanks for the words of wisdom and at least for giving me a better outlook on things. Much appreciated. This is great advice and I can relate to it so well on a personal level.
