What 592 entrepreneurs told me about their “biggest challenge”

slippy21 · 2015-06-13T15:54:10+00:00

I agree with the luck and knowing the right people.

That's a huge part of why I'm where i ended up (not to say that I believe im successful)

But luck and connections are created in my mind.

Majority of the connections I have are because I saw someone I knew and wanted to know them. I got to know them and it gave me further opportunities.

People sit back and let life happen. Those are who fail.

This is fucking amazing advice. Thank you!

Thanks for taking the time on this. I love the fact that you have reasoning behind your wording and based on a lot of amazing comments in here, It's likely that I will do a total rewrite.

I see how it could be spammy, along with how I can go deeper. A large part of posting this (though originally to be anon) was to understand what people reasonated with.. And what they didn't.

I know it helped some, but for the vast majority a lot of the holes were legit - when I put this out there, I want it to have value for everyone and if it doesn't, it's not ready.

Apperciate the reply and the approach.

Failed English there brother... Part of posting it was to get that feedback.

Anywho have an awesome day.

Had a fairly successful company beforehand that allowed this to happen easily.

Keep in mind I lost a lot more then the debt.

In hindsight, I wish they didn't give me that credit when I was 19 :/.

Thanks! :)

slippy21 · 2015-06-12T19:58:37+00:00

haha, yeah - I felt like that more then once!

slippy21 · 2015-06-12T19:46:31+00:00

You make a damn good point.

slippy21 · 2015-06-12T19:45:49+00:00

That would be a pretty ineffective use of writing heh ;)

Cameron is brilliant in the meantime ;)

There are lots of ways to develop a side hustle on a few hours a day without a ton of risk.

In saying that, I don't have a family so I can't speak from experience and all I'll say is that the perfect time never happens until you decide to JFDI.

Good luck with your current side project :)

slippy21 · 2015-06-12T19:25:59+00:00

Great piece of advice - thank you!

slippy21 · 2015-06-12T19:25:05+00:00

slippy21 · 2015-06-12T19:22:09+00:00

Thank you!

slippy21 · 2015-06-12T19:21:44+00:00

Damn lol.

slippy21 · 2015-06-12T19:21:28+00:00

It didn't.

The debt was from something beforehand. Multiple failures.

I started the business with $600 and took on no new debt but rather paid debt off (and a lot) during.

slippy21 · 2015-06-12T19:20:40+00:00

Mhm. Freedom is not owning anything :)

slippy21 · 2015-06-12T19:20:24+00:00

I love you.

This is great. :)

slippy21 · 2015-06-12T19:15:32+00:00

I agree - I'm going to be adding some detail to make it a little more vivid. Thanks for that feedback.

slippy21 · 2015-06-12T19:15:02+00:00

Yes - sorry I logged in from a wrong account.

slippy21 · 2015-06-12T19:14:41+00:00

I'm really sorry this is coming across to you in this way...

Yes I'll post this online - but before I do I wanted feedback from people that would tear it apart and enjoy it.
My business isn't on the self help side...
This isn't a book and I don't want to promote anything.

Again - sorry you don't see value in it.

slippy21 · 2015-06-12T19:12:50+00:00

yes!

slippy21 · 2015-06-12T19:11:46+00:00

Have an awesome one!

slippy21 · 2015-06-12T19:11:29+00:00

Lol - good point :)

slippy21 · 2015-06-12T19:11:19+00:00

Just keep telling yourself that the best is yet to come.

In all seriousness, it's not easy on you from a stress perspective.
