Don't start a business unless there is a wrong that you want to right, otherwise you're going to stick it through the hard times.
Steve Jobs noted that a lot of people would ask him how to become an entrepreneur, but that they didn’t have an idea yet.
He’d tell them, “I think you should go get a job as a busboy or something, until you find something you’re really passionate about.”
Then, “You’ve got to have an idea, or a problem, or a wrong that you want to right that you’re passionate about, otherwise you’re not going to have the perseverance to stick it through.”
It’s hard starting a business. If you don’t have a deeper conviction that you’re solving a problem that really needs to be solved, you’ll never make it through the adversity.

"Never play to the gallery, never work for other people in what you do, always remember that the reason you initially started working was that there was something inside yourself, that you felt if you could manifest it in someway, you would understand more about yourself and how you co-exist with the rest of society. I think it's terribly dangerous for an artist to fulfill other peoples expectations, I think they produce their worst work when they do that.
Another thing I'd say, is that if you feel safe in the area you're working in, you are not working in the right area, always go a little further in the water then you feel you're capable of being in, go a little bit out of your depth and when you don't feel that your feet are quite touching the bottom, then you're just about in the right place to do something exciting."
David Bowie.
