Hi forum friends! This is Osama (not the one you thinking 😀).
I joined this forum at the start of this year but haven't posted anything yet. I read Fastlane and Unscripted and got a dopamine surge by daydreaming about 'F**K This' to my current job and going for a scalable business.
Although, my goal is clear like everybody else on this forum that we at the start want to trade our time for a value-appreciating asset (cashflow business) that holds an inherent value to the world and potential buyers.
I understand this needs exceptional resolve, discipline, pure hard work, and constant learning. Adding value to people's everyday lives demands valuable efforts which is not that easy but at the same time not as difficult.
MJ's books were a real eye-opener and gave a crystal clear understanding of money, value systems, CENTS business vs. friendly neighborhood business, value skews and the Unscripted entrepreneurship model.
Since childhood, I was a hesitant action-taker who was always looking for all the secret ingredients, any possible risks and a plethora of related bookish knowledge about anything worthy enough to start it. You can call me a perfectionist or a procrastinator. Though the latter seems more reasonable.
I know being a perfectionist or a procrastinator is not and should not be a trait of an entrepreneur. I am currently working on myself to kick-start anything with little resources at my disposal and trying to learn stuff on the way as I've experienced it to be more fruitful and efficient.
I am here to learn from the experience of my forum fellows who've made it. How did you remain adamant in your cause? How did you believe it'll work or you'll make it work? How did you manage it parallel to your day job? (Mine leaves me with just 4 hours Mon-Fri and I've weekends as full days to work on my thing)
I don't need motivation as there is tons of it out there in web space. I just wanna know how you scaled your business from an earning kitchen to a sustainable auto-pilot money-printing machine.
Did you have an early investment? (As I don't have it yet - just a little savings from my job!)
Does money-making come down to 'sales' like everything else? (stated that the product being sold provides enough value)
I'll be looking forward to hear from you guys. Wish me good luck. Thanks for your time!
