No. Focus on your customers and iterate your product accordingly. Most of the larger world is irrelevant at the beginning while you're figuring out the right product/market fit and learning from customer feedback. Good luck! It's a fun journey, and you will learn a ton. I left my job in January and have never been happier.
that's what i've been trying to do. just focus on pushing forward with all aspects of the business. everytime i take a break, i keep seeing articles about the double dip recession and can't help but worry. even TC posted about economy, jobs, outsourcing etc...
We've been in various degrees of economic turmoil for over a decade. Google IPOd in the middle of it. Facebook and Twitter got started in the middle of it. What makes you think you're not cut out to thrive in chaos?
Quit worrying so much and do what you do. You'll surprise yourself.
