Starting a successful business usually isn't that difficult IF:

1. You have more than adequate capital.

2. You're willing to live, eat, and sleep your business...you must have a true passion for whatever you're doing.

3. You're intelligent, creative, and able to think outside the box.

However, most people who try to start businesses are usually lacking in at least one of the three (usually at least two of the three).

best advice i ever heard was to think long and hard, really figure out how much money you need to start your business, then triple that number and you have your starting capital requirement.

Yea, it's not really that hard to do successfully if you're willing to make building said business your life, involves a product or service that is truly wanted or unique (this is probably the most important aspect), and isn't the type of business that relies on ads/visitors per month to generate revenue like a Facebook/Snapchat/InstaG/etc. For those type businesses, you'll need VC money to really get going.
