There is not a well-chalked path that you can take because both creating a path and walking on it is to be done by you, however, you can learn from those who made to the top. It can be anything that keeps your frustration away, yoga, drums, games or guitar.
Airbnb started out in 2008 when founders Brian Chesky and Joe Gebbia realised, they could make a quick buck by renting out an air mattress in their living room to people visiting San Francisco for a big conference. The idea then evolved into a website where others could do the same, and travellers could get a cheaper option than a hotel. They famously did things that did not scale and then growth hacked solutions so that they did. Each time a listing was made in their area on Craigslist, they would email the homeowner and ask if they would like to list on Airbnb. The homeowner would then spread the word about this new booking platform. After finding success in doing this manually, they created a script that would automatically email all new listings on Craigslist and notify them about Airbnb. It also shows that they realised early on that the key to success on the platform would be getting hosts to list their properties.
