I brokeup with my StartUp

In a not so cute romance novel a cute looking girl meets a seemingly smart boy and they seem to get along well with one another and the rest you can read from any of the many romance novels available on eBay but their is a new kid in the block which is cheesy enough to give your mind a High blood pressure.

These seemingly inspiring books with titles like "How to become a millionaire in billion ways?" or "how to be the next blah..ionaire read(billionaire)" are warming the virtual shelves of E-book stores of all shapes and sizes which are called "start-up romances".
Now let us dissect into the source of inspiration of these inspirational books and you might find yourself surrounded by romance schemes and plots of all kind mentioned in the teen specific romance novels

Remember the formula romances which well might had been prescribed by the male doctors from the medical romances of M&B however outlandish it may sound but the same formula holds true for a “start-up idea” in these old kind of new books called "start-up romances"  where an unevenly cooked up start-up venture in the form of an attractive girl or a handsome hunk enters into an ideal world romantic landscape and the rest is again available on ebay where portrayal of the start-up phenomenon is done in the same way writers deal with love affairs.

But the problem starts when people after getting inspired from these novels start thinking of reaching multimillion dollar start-up valuations without realizing that nurturing a start-up is much more difficult than being in a high school relationship.

Actually the real life story unfolds in a very similar manner in both the cases unlike the novels that is with each passing day the interest and the so called love towards your start-up heads south without exception if the “start-up idea" doesn’t meet our expectations which was once fueled by our initial excitement and euphoria regarding a start-up which led us to drawing conclusions like “Yes” “this is it..this is the gate with the Bill in it”,“Hell yeah..i am the next jobs”.

Now replace the word “start-up” with “love interest” and you will know exactly what I am talking about and very soon people start discovering that may be "this wasn't right read(shouldn't have invested into this)"  or "this isn't working anymore read(i need to take a job)" and lastly "we need to move on read(i am worked up)" the only seemingly difference in this case is that a "worked up" start-up might ruin your finances more than a broken relationship even if you discount the mental turmoil an individual might face in both the scenarios.

Actually the above story is unfolding in more cases than one so much so that start-ups are like the relationships which sprout in suburban colleges where kids end up screwing each other's semester grades more than anything else trying the freshly baked romance dishes on each other inspired from romance novels not realizing that "the dish" was out from the oven well before their parents decided to marry.
But the Irony is neither the formulas of romance novels nor the romanticized business books with half baked start-up success stories can help us attain the desired results in real life.

On a brighter note this can be said that great start-ups are like great relationships which survive the test of time and even if it doesn't they leaves us with ample sweet and sour experiences which ultimately makes us wiser.

Can you Start me up?

Their were days when people dreamt of becoming "the next bill gates or Steve jobs" but then the internet start-ups came and everything changed
Earlier start-ups meant starting a brick and mortar business built over a new technological, market or social innovation but nowadays internet start-ups have taken their place which are much easier to start but at the same time much more prone to "endups" as well.
One more intriguing point is that today too many start-ups depend upon borrowed ideas from the net which is otherwise fine until unless you start typing...

"New ideas for start-ups" on the Google search bar.

A start-up which is inspired from an another start-up doing well is bound to fail because you might end up following a mirage.
but why?
simply because so many people in the world are thinking about the same thing at the same time that whenever you will try to emulate a particular start-up or a internet business model; its most likely that you are already part of a queue(which is to copy the successful model) which will lead you to nowhere

If a start-up idea is not fueled from within and as a result of the surrounding environment(including your online life) it is bound to fail just like an Iron Man suit will fail without the "legendary Arc reactor".

Similarly a start-up which doesn't have its own "arc reactor" is bound to end up being a heap of scrap similar to what could happen to an Iron Man suit without the energy source.

Therefore a great start-up will always have its own "Arc reactor" no matter what; it can be an idea, a unique talent or even a trade secret but one thing is for sure that without it their is no point wasting time building "Iron patriots" or Iron suits which cannot fly because we are not fortunate enough in the real world to have a friend like Tony stark who would lend you his "Arc reactor" which he invented due to circumstances more than anything else.
