The timeframe of 6 months is kind of a fantasy. Building a business or successful product takes way more than that. It’s a marathon not a sprint.

The outliers that you might see are one of the following:

- Someone with large following/authority built over many years.

- Burning cash in ads, mainly VC funded, not solo.

I’m writing this hoping it will help someone to realise reality and avoid falling for online traps that building a business is easy or can be done in months.
