Summary
"How long is this going to take?" I was surprised to hear the question, but also really happy that this person was asking it. Because we think it's not going to take long at all. And people on social media tell us that we can make six figures overnight. But it's taking a whole lot longer than that. We're six months into our businesses and we can barely pay our bills, let alone make six figures. When this happens, we feel like failures. We feel like we're doing it wrong. We want to quit. But here's the truth: Building a business takes a whole lot more time, effort, and energy than people on social media would have you believe. So if you've ever felt like this - if you're struggling to make it work - I have some advice for you in today's episode. Here's what we talk about: - The interesting question I was asked in a webinar this week - Why most entrepreneurs feel like they are failing - Building a business takes time - The problem with listening to people who say you can get rich quick - Why you *don't need* to get rich quick - How long are you willing to commit to pursuing your dream?

"How long is this going to take?"
I was surprised to hear the question, but also really happy that this person was asking it.
Because we think it's not going to take long at all.
And people on social media tell us that we can make six figures overnight.
But it's taking a whole lot longer than that. We're six months into our businesses and we can barely pay our bills, let alone make six figures.
When this happens, we feel like failures. We feel like we're doing it wrong. We want to quit.
But here's the truth: Building a business takes a whole lot more time, effort, and energy than people on social media would have you believe.
So if you've ever felt like this - if you're struggling to make it work - I have some advice for you in today's episode.
Here's what we talk about:
- The interesting question I was asked in a webinar this week
- Why most entrepreneurs feel like they are failing
- Building a business takes time
- The problem with listening to people who say you can get rich quick
- Why you *don't need* to get rich quick
