    Why Small Wins Are Often the Enemy of Big Success

    MINDSET 
    Ich verstehe, worauf Sie hinauswollen, und ich schätze den zum Nachdenken anregenden Vergleich – er verdeutlicht tatsächlich ein Kernproblem recht gut: Einfach den Stundenlohn zu erhöhen, ist keine Fastlane-Strategie. Kurzfristig mag es helfen, aber es bleibt ein grundsätzlich begrenztes System...

    From "Must" to "Will" – The True Key to Freedom

    MINDSET 
    Many people start their business with a big vision: freedom, independence, success. That was my goal too. I didn’t want to work for someone else’s dreams—I wanted to build my own. But for a long time, reality looked very different. Even though I was self-employed, I often felt like I had less...

    Why Small Wins Are Often the Enemy of Big Success

    MINDSET 
    I think there might be a misunderstanding in translation. I’m not against small successes—quite the opposite. I fully recognize their value in building momentum, motivation, and long-term growth. What I am against is small margins and small profits. The trades are a perfect example. Many...

    Why Small Wins Are Often the Enemy of Big Success

    And I’d love to use the example of the trades, as I’ve been actively involved in that field myself and still am from time to time. It’s a perfect illustration because, in most cases, it operates as a Slowlane business. I know an incredible number of people in the industry who simply disappear...

    Why Small Wins Are Often the Enemy of Big Success

    I see what you mean, and you're absolutely right—small steps are necessary to get to the next level. No one starts with advanced strategies or large-scale projects right away. But I think the real issue isn’t that people start with small things—it’s that they get stuck there. They stay in the...

    Thanks for your perspective! I completely agree – the optimal strategy depends heavily on the structure and dynamics of a given market. It’s not just about high vs. low hourly rates, but rather how the business model scales and what leverage it offers. Scaling Through Volume vs. Scaling Through...

    Why Small Wins Are Often the Enemy of Big Success

    MINDSET 
    In my post, I was referring to small financial wins that often don’t justify the effort and time invested. They tend to be time wasters that prevent me from focusing on truly meaningful work and can lead to undervaluing myself. However, when it comes to breaking down big visions into smaller...

    Yep, and I decided I’d rather own the mint than keep picking up loose change. Funny how the right opportunities appear once you stop settling for less!

    Yes, I can give you an example. I have been a passionate craftsman for 25 years and master all trades in interior construction. Unfortunately, in the construction industry, decisions are often made solely based on price—the lowest bidder usually wins the contract. What gets completely overlooked...

    Why Small Wins Are Often the Enemy of Big Success

    MINDSET 
    For me, this is a question of my inner mindset and my awareness of my true value. When my mindset is right and I am fully aware of my actual worth, I can make decisions that exclude small, short-term gains. Often, the reason people go after these "peanut gains" is simply the need to cover their...

    Why Small Wins Are Often the Enemy of Big Success

    MINDSET 
    Many entrepreneurs believe it’s smart to start small and gradually work their way up. They take small wins to “play it safe” and generate cash flow. I used to think the same way. I believed it was smart to take quick, easy money first before focusing on bigger opportunities. But at some point, I...

    Should You Sign an NDA – or Is It Just a Waste of Time?

    MINDSET 
    So if ideas come from ignorance, then I must be a walking idea factory! But seriously, if someone is willing to test my ideas for free, please let me know—I have a whole list ready! By the way, your weight loss idea sounds revolutionary. Maybe I’ll launch an app for it. I’ll call it...

    Haha, true! Nothing kills the vibe like ‘Before we continue, please sign this NDA.’ But hey, party secrets are party secrets!

    Should You Sign an NDA – or Is It Just a Waste of Time?

    MINDSET 
    Genau, es gibt Situationen, in denen sie notwendig sind. Aber in den meisten Fällen, in denen Startups einfach nur Angst haben oder wichtig erscheinen wollen, ist es für mich reine Zeitverschwendung.

    Should You Sign an NDA – or Is It Just a Waste of Time?

    MINDSET 
    When someone asks me to sign an NDA, it often feels like an act of insecurity from the project creators. In most cases, I don’t engage with such projects anymore – simply because they usually turn out to be time wasters. Of course, there are exceptions. Some product developments involve secret...

    From Homeless Punk to Fastlane Driver

    INTRO 
    Yes, I absolutely agree with you! I always find it amusing to observe when people act as if business has nothing to do with them—yet they still want to go on vacation, own cars, or live in a beautiful house. In the end, all of that only works through business—whether by selling your time to a...
