It&amp;#x27;s one I had before, and I still have after my success. There is always something else, something better you wish you had.&lt;p&gt;In my hometown, there is an entrepreneur; one everyone knows who started a 3D studio with now more than &amp;gt; 300 employees; a massive success. He lives in my neighborhood, so we happen to discuss from time to time on walks. He, at one point, stopped me when I told him how much I admired his work and how envious I was of his abilities to scale smoothly; he told me: &amp;quot;Phil, there is nothing I would love more than running a small profitable web business like yours with just two of my buddies.&amp;quot;&lt;p&gt;When success hits for the first time, it&amp;#x27;s a disturbing feeling realizing your desires and insecurities are pretty much still all there. You are still an envious bag of meat.&lt;p&gt;Anyway, congrats Peter on the success and fantastic journey! Yes, I&amp;#x27;m still a bit jealous, like most here :) But I work on this. I got to go; I got my Yin Yoga class in 20 minutes. It will surely help me realize how lucky I am to live a life of beauty and experiments. It will help me recognize this burning jealousy, accept it, as it is simply part of this beautiful game of life.&lt;p&gt;[1] &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;missiveapp.com&amp;#x2F;blog&amp;#x2F;how-we-built-1m-arr-email-client&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;missiveapp.com&amp;#x2F;blog&amp;#x2F;how-we-built-1m-arr-email-client&lt;/a&gt;</text><parent_chain><item><author>pieterhg</author><text>Remote OK Founder Pieter here, thanks for submitting this and I hope everyone enjoys seeing it.&lt;p&gt;All of this is possible because I&amp;#x27;ve been a HN reader since 2010 and was inspired by all of you and especially @patio11 on here to bootstrap my own things and do it VERY publicly.

Right place, right time, right execution.&lt;p&gt;There is some irony in @patio11, who I think has&amp;#x2F;had some of the best writing&amp;#x2F;talking on the subject of SaaS. He has helped a LOT of other people in their SaaS (and even salaried careers), but was never successful in his own SaaS business.</text><parent_chain><item><author>pieterhg</author><text>Remote OK Founder Pieter here, thanks for submitting this and I hope everyone enjoys seeing it.&lt;p&gt;All of this is possible because I&amp;#x27;ve been a HN reader since 2010 and was inspired by all of you and especially @patio11 on here to bootstrap my own things and do it VERY publicly.
