What is cool about running your own business is that success begets more success. Once we won at one thing, it became easier to stack more successful projects on top of that.
Almost everything you have heard about entrepreneurship is wrong. If someone told you that you had to go all in or that you have a risk big to get the big rewards, do not believe them. I am sure those people exist but other than the random life coach on Instagram. Their lifestyles do not reflect what seem realistic or attractive to me and the people I know and respect. If that way of building a business is possible why would you want to rick it all if you did not have to? The odds are you will never make life changing money unless you play the fortune side bet. It may take a little more time and energy, requiring a little more patience on your part but it will be worth it. I have seen this happen over and over again over the years and the end result is a sustainable, long term business that provides a tremendous amount of freedom and security for you and your family.
Ming noticed a need in the women’s clothing market when she was pregnant and working as an executive, leading a team of seventy people. She needed to look professional but still be comfortable. Growing a baby and staying in business is hard work and clothes should not get in the way of that.
Three years later, she owns a company which generates millions of dollars per year. She has since quit her nine to five job and works on her business eight hours a day but on her own time freeing up the afternoons and evenings to spend with her kids. Her fortune side bet turned into full time business that has continued to expand. Today, she is working on starting other business and a nonprofit, all make possible by selling some pants on Amazon.
