I have read innumerable stories of founders who started up because they had an idea that they strongly believed in and wanted to build a company around it. That’s an incorrect reason to start a company. Also, sometimes people have a vision of being a founder/CEO of the company and being on the top of the pyramid. In reality, all of your customers, partners, investors, employees are your boss! I’ve never had more bosses in my life before this! :)If you want to exercise power and authority over people join military or politics - being a founder is not a valid option.
