An Entrepreneur’s Iconic Love Story

I recently had an entire conversation with a startup founder with a handful of emojis, some bitmojis, and a picture.  As time is of the essence for founders, not a second should be wasted on non-essentials.  Who has time to type out words?
An entrepreneur’s love story can be portrayed in a series of icons:

• Firstly inspiration hits and an entrepreneur must do all he/she can to woo the idea.
• As the entrepreneur tries and tries to finds a customer, the sweat and tears change the love story  into a tragedy as we are not sure if the entrepreneur’s efforts will ever live up to the idea.
• The entrepreneur gets it in his/her head that a sure way to expand the love for the idea is through investors.
• The entrepreneur gets used to rejection and feels hopeless.
• The entrepreneur’s emotions go into a pit and he/she wonders if it was ever really true love with the idea?  Perhaps it is time to give up?
• When the entrepreneur is seconds away from giving away the true love of his/her life, the first customer materializes.  The skies break, and the sun shines through.
