The short answer is: it is incredibly challenging. Pretty much everything you want to start is going to cost some amount of money to get going. The way I see it is that you have a few viable options: borrow/raise money from friends and family that believe in you, get a job where you can save money (or work your way up until you can), or find something that you can sell to bring in extra money while you work. Learning to sell will be the most valuable long-term skill you can acquire unless you go the route of becoming an expert at building technology. Whatever it is you do, dedicate yourself to it completely. Entrepreneurship is an all-in lifestyle. If you aren’t prepared to give it everything you have (sacrificing time, relationships, short term financial gain, etc) it will be nearly impossible to succeed.
