Omar Zenhom explains the difference between real feedback and fear-based noise when testing a business idea. Real feedback asks specific questions: How will you get customers? Can you afford six months without income? Fear-based feedback is vague and discouraging. Focus on the concrete, fixable details and ignore the rest.

Real feedback is specific, while fear-based feedback is quite vague. Real feedback sounds like, how are you gonna get your first customers? Can we afford 6 months without income?
