"The best way to live the life you want is to start living the life you want in the capacity that you can and incrementally move towards where you want to be"
Think of it this way. Do you think the immigrants that came to America in the early part of the century (or even later) were worried about enjoyment or were they working their fingers to the bone in order to make a better life for their family? That's what it's like being an entrepreneur and making something work given the risk and the hurdles one will encounter. I'm not even saying you can't have any enjoyment at all or should work every hour like an immigrant. But as close to it as possible given getting sleep and exercise is an attainable goal in order to make something a success and provide security.
