10 harsh lessons that took me years to learn, but you get in the next 5 mins:
1. Your biggest supporter is a stranger & your biggest doubter is someone you know.
You expect the people closest to you to support you.
Most of the time, they won’t.
Not to the standard you’d like.
Don’t stress…
Absolute strangers will make you rich.
2. A degree is just a piece of paper.
In today's society, a degree alone is meaningless in most industries.
You need to have real-life skills to back it up.
How are you setting yourself apart?
Your value doesn’t come from how hard you work, but how irreplaceable you are.
3. Nobody cares about your business as much as you do.
The harsh reality is that no one will ever care about your business as much as you do…
You’re the owner.
If you want people to support your business, you need to offer them something in exchange.
Provide value.
4. Your life is your responsibility.
Where you are now is due to all the decisions you’ve made up until here…
Nobody else can make decisions for you. Just you.
Nobody else is to blame. Just you.
Taking accountability is the first step to fixing it.
