As a person hoping to start my own business within the next couple of months, this scares me quite a bit.

Honestly the entire notion of building my own company and not having the security of a stable paycheck is frightening. But even taking that into account, it doesn't diminish my desire to keep following this path regardless of the risk and warnings I've frequently heard.

Maybe this means I'm "over optimistic" bordering on "completely delusional" but I'll be damned if I don't try and make this work anyways.

The terms optimistic and delusional describe the two states of hypomania. Hypomania can be managed through good diet, exercise, meditation and other things that have absolutely zero to do with your business and everything to do with you. However, you are what makes your business successful at the end of the day. Manage it like you manage your business.
