During our road-trip to financial proficiency we experience common challenges, trials and tribulations. Some people are cognisant but simply don't have an idea what to do next, while a lot of other people don't realise a resolve is required and end up emotionally drained on their journey to success.
In many faculties of life, a crucial ingredient in the recipe of progress is the blend between being proactive and reactive, experimentation and avoiding repeating mistakes, respectively. A lot of people I've come to know have a challenge progressing simply because there's an imbalance in their process, they spend an awful amount of time doing things that don't work while expecting a different outcome in the end.
So I decided to put up this thread for those that are lost in the desert of process wondering how they can progress to their next step, and also for those who experience problems in isolation so that they have a place where they can share their experiences and failures, so that everyone else can work around creating a solution that works and curates progress.
The Blockbuster Business
A lot of people have great intentions when starting their road-trip to wealth but find the first mile impossible to overcome due to a lack of ideas, purpose or even the temptation to do what they know and love. Such often culminates in a person exiting the orbit of entrepreneurship due to incorrect premise.
This is especially evident in folks that think that only the most radical ideas will make a business, while it's demotivating to the person who knows they have a solution to a problem, but think it's too silly to turn into a substantial business.
Well here's a classic one to encourage you: Fraser Doherty. Yes, the guy who hit it big selling jam! Who knew jam would become the sensation that would liberate Doherty from the 9-5?
The same goes for everyone out there; point being no matter how silly you may think your solution is, as long as there's a solid need for it...
Get it out there!
