Why you should (or shouldn't) start a business and be an entrepreneur

Why do people actually start businesses? Being an entrepreneur isn't an easy gig. Most people never try and fewer actually succeed; however, it's totally possible and there is no ceiling to anything you can accomplish. I made the decision to start from scratch at 49 yers old with no training, money or support.

“Because every entrepreneur knows it's not a straight line to success”

-Bonnie L. Frank 

Today's episode  is not just for entrepreneurs starting a business but but for any business owner who wants to reach their business goals. This episode shares what you need to do in order to keep going when times get tough. Every entrepreneur knows there's no straight line to  success in business. Simon Sinek in his book Start with Why shares that your business mindset and your WHY is the biggest indicator of success. Whether you are starting an online business,  a coaching business or any kind of business where you are the decision maker, your WHY is what will carry you to the finish line.
