It's Saturday night 11:51PM and I'm just taking a break from reading my new book "Adweek the copywriting handbook".
My business which took a year to get here is about to reach $100k/yr and it feels great. Everyday I wake up comfortable knowing I've finally built something successful.
Our growth is only getting better and I can see the path to $100k/month.
What's different between before the business and now?
Not much.
I think I can better evaluate ideas (I'm also starting another startup on the side) and I have more experience now but nothing is really different.
Why?
Because I always believed in myself and that's really all it takes. I never once gave up. Ever. I just kept going through every failure knowing that I would eventually make it.
You can see I joined this forum in 2013 and I've been on the grind even before that but was a little immature and didn't take my ideas as seriously as they needed to be taken to succeed.
If you factor in all the time/failures you can easily say it took 3-5 years to reach the point I'm at today.
It was worth it.
The grind feels the same at $100k as it did $1.
Commit to something and don't stop.
