#EntrepreneurLife #RiskAndReward #KeepPushing
Becoming an entrepreneur is not for the weak 💪. It’s a tough journey filled with challenges and obstacles. But hey, no pain, no gain, right? Here’s the deal:
– You might feel alienated at times, but remember you’re on the right path.
– Not everyone will understand or support your vision, but that’s okay.
– Waiting months for a payout is tough, but it will be worth it in the end.
– Business can go insolvent, but that’s a risk you have to take.
In my experience, every challenge has only made me stronger. The reward of being your own boss and seeing your vision come to life is priceless. So, keep pushing through the tough times and stay focused on your goals.
One possible solution is surrounding yourself with a supportive network of fellow entrepreneurs who understand your struggles and can offer advice and encouragement. Remember, you’re not alone in this journey. Let’s inspire and uplift each other as we navigate the ups and downs of entrepreneurship! 🚀🌟
Hey there bro, I strongly agree with what you are saying, I have a problem right now, I am a company that makes materials, my customer told me that it will take nine months before I can pay for them, every order amount is more than 200,000 dollars, I don‘t have enough money to advance right now, how can I go on with my business?
Ditto. I love the game. S corp distributions, etc. #Truetothegame 💯🔥
So what do you do if you are weak and unmotivated? Just hope the world changes to embrace innovation and ask the outcasts for once?
The reward is much greater than the pain…if you succeed enough to want to post about it.
Yep, it is only at the top. But if you are compressing 40 years into 10 years & retiring plus living higher quality of life, then its all worth it.
If we knew how hard it would be, we wouldn’t have started lawl.
I’m still [early](https://startupspells.com) in my journey but damn, is it tiring.
Yep. And your mental health will take a toll. It’s not sunshine and rainbows
Hmm. Not sure whether to cheer or cry. Lol.
I mean, it’s true that entrepreneurship can be *really* hard, and the “resolution” (keep pushing) is required. It even *sounds* motivational.
But, I believe people need more.
More support. More answers. Access to additional skills. More partnership opportunities. More collaboration in general.
These are real things that could change the game for us as entrepreneurs, and massively up our chances of success. But, they have not been readily accessible to bootstrappers without capital. So, it’s what I launched a company to solve.
And, we have to solve it. Working hard and determination alone are just a starting place. We need to collaborate in new ways to unlock our full potential and get more wins.
Not to mention, the job is never done. My startup after 5 years, now Dominate’s a large chuck of an industry, in 1 country. I was finally thinking to relax and take the foot of the gas.
A few weeks ago, we made the decision to launch into 7 more countries. Now we are back on the grind hard core for another 5 years at least. And you know what, I’m excited again, excited to be the small guy in new markets. To use what we learned in the first 5 years to do it all again, but better and quicker. We may fail, but hey, that’s the fun of this journey.
Of course it’s not.  It’s not taught in college. It’s not encouraged by family and friends 99% of the time In the United States we don’t have universal healthcare so it’s a huge risk to take especially if you have a spouse or family.
And let’s be realistic 95% of the population is more than happy thinking that $100,000 a year is a great salary and things will be awesome if they make that much money. 
I remember being st a tradeshow. I’m a headhunter and the firm I worked for at the time, I own my own firm now, had a booth at the tradeshow. I was talking to a sales rep from one of the larger companies in our industry. He mentioned that he bought a lottery ticket. I think the payout with something like a little over $100,000 am a year before taxes. He made a comment that he bought a bunch of tickets. I made a comment along the line above “after taxes only like 80 or $90,000“ and he said something along lined up? Is that not enough for you to live? That’s more than enough“ At the time I was making almost double that. This is one of those things that made me realize that most people are more than happy making 100 grand a year and they think it’s a lot of money Now this is almost 20 years ago so maybe it’s 150,000 for a little more.
It’s a rollercoaster but the thrill of building something from scratch makes it all worth it.
I started my business in my twenties. It has been almost 10 years of figuring it out alone. Finally, I have backing from someone who believes in my vision and is giving me the tools to grow. 10 years. Lonely and brutal at times, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel. 🙂
