I made this post for the people out there who are expecting a quick success still. You want the money, you want it right away.
I was just talking to a friend of mine who was frustrated that the business isn't making money yet, in month 3.
I told him for my first business:
Sept. 2013 I started working on it
October 2013 - $0
November 2013 - $0
December 2013 - $0
January 2014 - $0
February 2014 - $68/mo
March 2014 - $500/mo
April 2014 - $3,000/mo
May 2014 - $10,000/mo
When MJ wrote his book, did he make the money when he was writing his first word? His first chapter? Hist second chapter? The last chapter? Editing? Book cover?
Patience and persistence.
Work smart. Work hard. Work faster.
But patience....because you're building it for that ONE MOMENT where it all comes together.
Anyhow, just wanted to share this for anyone who is still expecting the quick win - it seems to be a common theme among newbies and a reminder for the rest of us.
