From the trenches of a San Francisco-based entrepreneur, here is small business startup advice of a more subjective nature on the My Life, Starting Up blog. Suggestions include becoming involved only with those who share your passion and trying to find a way to pay anyone who doesn't have a vested interest in your company. The advice should be viewed in perspective. Obviously, not everyone who helps you along the way will share your passion for your product or service, but those within your inner circle certainly should. Also, those who you can pay for their services will certainly be more committed.
