Sometimes when I have a business idea I am excited to share it with friends. I want to hear their opinions and pick their brains. Often they give me good feedback. Sometimes they shoot the idea down. Sometimes they suggest something completely different. It can be demotivating and even confusing at times, but these are the most valuable opinions. When your friend is not afraid to shoot down your idea, you know you have a true friend who feels safe and trusts you to be able to take criticism. In the end I know I can't follow every suggestion I get. However by spending the effort to get feedback I get many useful perspectives and new information I would not have thought of or come across myself.
Love your friends who are willing to shoot you.
