    I would likely take a partnership with someone only if our ideas and vision aligned completely. That alone is something hard to find. If you have a partner who is not as committed as you are, when things get rough, you won’t be able to rely on them, or they will not have the same drive that you do to push through. Someone earlier mentioned that they would not do a partnership because the execution of plans would be different, but I think that is one of the aspects of partnership that can be a benefit. Because of the different perspectives that different people bring, no two people will think of the exact same way to execute a plan. This is beneficial because it reduces the blindspots that arise from only having one person execute/formulate the plan (more diversity tends to bring different, unexpected ways of thinking). Overall though, having a partnership is something that is not easy, it goes without saying that there will be times of clashing between partners, but if the right people are with each other, success can happen.
