My whole life.

Let me explain.

I was born on the day my father started his business full time (quit his day job).

My start up idea is to completely revolutionize the industry of my father's business. So my life time exposure to my father's business is my inspiration for my start up.

For me it was more of seeing an end-user need not being served and slowly mulling over ways to serve that need, progressing to building a prototype on my own time, finding an equally-motivated co-founder, before finally going full-time.

The end-user need wasn't served because of both technological and business reasons. Customers complained without much being done, so I thought that might be an opportunity.
