4 steps to unf*ck your entrepreneurial journey
|
Hey Reader, Happy Thursday! If you're still struggling to launch your business and dream of freedom, try these steps out: If you have a job, stop wasting all your free time on social media and TVThe only way to escape the rat race is to use your time to build a business and replace your income. If you’re squandering your limited time on social media and TV, you’ll never get ahead. If you plan to retire early, you’ll have plenty of time to binge TV. I’m saving Breaking Bad just for this moment. It’s going to go crazy, I know. Please, no spoilers haha. Ideas are worthless without execution. Pick something and start learning.Breadcrumbs was my first business that ultimately failed. I learned so much from Breadcrumbs that it allowed me to envision other businesses. That’s how I discovered Scattermind was possible. So, I wouldn’t be an entrepreneur if I hadn’t taken those first steps. Building businesses will teach you more about business than anything else. The idea isn’t worth anything if you don’t start & execute. You learn to execute by building things and taking action. Get started! Try to sell the idea before building itDon’t fall into the trap of building some crazy app; when you go to sell it, you realize that no one wants it. You don’t want to build a solution to a problem that doesn’t exist. The easiest way to overcome this is - Talk to customers - Read the MOM test - Create an Avatar and Offer - Read $100M Offers - Reach out to people in your network and get them to buy it from you - SPIN selling If you say you’re going to build something, build it and see it throughThe most important thing besides starting is being consistent. Start treating your word as bond. When you say you will build something, give yourself a deadline and make it happen. If you can’t get yourself to execute and take yourself seriously, there won’t be anyone there to push you. You need to hold yourself accountable because no one else will. |

Don’t get me wrong, they’re important, but still not the most important. The most important thing is...
Hey Reader,ADHD meds are a powerful tool, but they are like training wheels. Meds revealed my capabilities, but if I wanted to go faster & farther, I had to move on from them. They transformed me from the kid in & out of detention to getting As as a chemical engineer on scholarship at USC. Lmao, the 3 on the right are within the same 2 days. Unfortunately, I became dependent upon them and couldn't complete any work without them. If anything, when I stopped taking meds, my symptoms were...
Hey Reader, Here are the 4 questions I ask myself when I'm not seeing my revenue grow: Are you spending enough time on your project or giving up to early? Give a business idea at least 6 months to a year before calling it quits. Typically, the growth I experience happens in leaps rather than a steady incline. So, you have to be consistent and patient. Are you selling something that people want? The biggest risk or riskiest assumption* in your business isn’t whether your product works — it’s...
