Folk often ask Why I Quit GOOGLE & Venture into ENTREPRENEURSHIP? I have preferred The Difficult Road of Entrepreneurship over the convenience of corporate America.

On 30th October 2018, I resigned from my job at Google to start my own business. Yes! I am Omar Itani, an ex-Googler.

Let me share with you how to quit a job and start your own business.
As much as I loved my time in Google, my decision came down to this: I was way too deep into my comfort zone.
Life was just too easy — free breakfast and lunch served every single day, seven restaurants to choose from, an entire gym three floors underneath me, a swimming pool, a dentist, a laundry service, a barista brewing your coffee, two kitchens on every single floor.
My role was no longer challenging me either and I wasn’t learning anything new in my day-to-day tasks — I completely lost the thrill.
I figured I needed a change in scenery and some time off to shake things up a bit.
So I did what I thought was right.
I quit.
I said I was done. I was not scared to quit the job and start a business. Leaving corporate America to start my own business was not a difficult decision for me.
And just like that, I handed in my resignation, packed my bags, and booked a flight out of Dublin. That’s how I venture into an entrepreneur.

I wasn’t too sure what I wanted to do after Google, but I knew this: I was approaching my third decade on earth and my heart was itching to finally try and start something of my own. That’s why I was leaving a career to start a business.

I wanted to build things and test out my ideas.
I just wanted to start, and stop talking about starting one day.

The Difficult Road of Entrepreneurship
Folk asks why entrepreneurship is hard. Here are the five challenges of entrepreneurship which form the five hard parts of entrepreneurship:

1. Entrepreneurship is not GLAMOROUS.
No, it is not. It is a lonely grueling process of just keep going.
We’ve been wired by the media to only see the result. Watch the animation to know more.
