🔥 The Hard Truth About Starting a Business
✅ Most people fail before they even start because they believe false myths.
✅ Success in business is NOT about having the perfect idea—it’s about execution.
✅ Your first few businesses will likely fail—and that’s a GOOD thing!
📌 Key takeaway: If you’re waiting for the “perfect time” or the “perfect idea,” you’ll never start. Lower the bar and take action NOW.
📌 Myth #1: You Need a “Good” Idea to Start a Business
✅ Why this is false: You don’t need a good idea—you just need to start.
✅ Your job: Focus on learning business skills instead of waiting for a perfect idea.
💡 Why Most First Business Ideas Fail:
✔️ Your first three businesses will likely fail—and that’s okay!
✔️ You learn business by DOING, not by watching videos or reading books.
✔️ Lower the bar—come up with 50 business ideas in 10 minutes to unlock creativity.
📌 Example: A bad business idea executed well is better than a great idea never executed.
📌 Myth #2: If Your Business Fails, You’ve Wasted Time
✅ Why this is false: Every failure teaches you skills for your next business.
✅ Your job: Treat your first businesses as training rounds.
💡 Why “Wasted Time” Is a Myth:
✔️ It’s like riding a bike—you have to fall a few times before you learn.
✔️ Each failure is an investment in your skills, not a waste of time.
✔️ If your goal is to learn, no business attempt is ever a failure.
📌 Example: The first six businesses the speaker started all failed before he found success.
📌 Myth #3: You Need Money to Start a Business
✅ Why this is false: Most businesses can be started with zero capital.
✅ Your job: Start with a service-based business before moving to product-based businesses.
💡 Why Service-Based Businesses Are the Best for Beginners:
✔️ You can start freelancing today with no upfront investment.
✔️ Most successful businesses start as simple services (consulting, editing, tutoring).
✔️ TV shows like Shark Tank make people think they need investment—but that’s for product businesses, NOT services.
📌 Example: The best first businesses are ones you can start with nothing but your skills.
📌 Myth #4: You Need to Quit Your Job to Start a Business
✅ Why this is false: Your first business should be a side hustle, not an all-in risk.
✅ Your job: Work on your business in small chunks (20–30 min/day).
✔️ Most people don’t need to save two years of expenses before starting.
✔️ You can build a business in 30 minutes a day, without quitting your job.
✔️ Building while employed reduces financial pressure & increases success rate.
📌 Example: Wake up 20 minutes earlier, work on weekends—just get started!
📌 Myth #5: Your First Business Needs to Be Your “Dream Business”
✅ Why this is false: Your first business is a stepping stone, not your final destination.
✅ Your job: Get comfortable with starting something, even if it’s not perfect.
💡 Why Your First Business Doesn’t Have to Be Perfect:
✔️ Most successful entrepreneurs didn’t build their dream business first.
✔️ You’re not marrying your business—you’re dating ideas to see what works.
✔️ Your first business is about learning skills, not achieving instant success.
📌 Example: Most entrepreneurs go through multiple failed businesses before finding their “dream” one.
