While they acknowledge that the journey is challenging, they believe that it gets easier as you gain clarity and experience small wins. They stress the importance of family and personal motivation, the power of vision and goal-setting, the significance of accountability and small daily actions, and the value of surrounding oneself with supportive and like-minded individuals.

    Play Episode Listen Later Aug 30, 2024 4:55


    When starting a business, it's common to feel like you need to be an expert. In this episode I want to debunk that myth. Business owners hire others because they don't want to do certain tasks themselves. It's not about being perfect, but about being good at solving the problem and doing it within the timeline the customer wants. Understanding the value of the customer's time can be a key factor in getting hired. You don't have to be the best, but you can still help people who don't want to do it themselves or don't know how to do it. Check out W2 Prison Break Nation on Skool!

    EP.191 Overcoming the Fear of Your Employer Discovering Your Side Business

    Play Episode Listen Later Aug 16, 2024 5:01


    In today's episode we address the fear that new business owners or people with W2 jobs have about their employers finding out about their side businesses. I want to remind you that you have the right to pursue your own interests outside of work and that your employers don't control your personal lives. There are two ways you can handle this fear: confidently respond to any questions about the side business by emphasizing that it doesn't impact job performance, or proactively communicate with employers to provide clarity and avoid miscommunication. The main takeaway is that individuals should not let the fear of their employers' reaction hold them back from pursuing their entrepreneurial goals.
