Founders of Receipt-AI, Queenie Peng and Ian Heraty, at 41st Street Beach in Chicago. July 27, 2024.

One thing I didn’t realize before starting a business is the amount of growth and pain that come with it.

Growth is painful. It forces you to step out of your comfort zone and do things you normally wouldn’t. Every successful entrepreneur is addicted to growth and pain on some level.

Once the excitement wears off, it’s the day-to-day work that truly matters. You have to want it - so much that turns you into an unleashed beast, ready to take on any challenges.
