Step Off The Hamster Wheel
November 12, 2008 7:02 pm Making money, Scanner Nights, Uncategorized
Going self-employed or starting your own business takes a lot of work in the early stages.
You can start to feel like a hamster on a wheel running faster and faster and not going anywhere.
Before you know it, you’re working all the hours available to you (and a few more) and still not seeing much return.
Part of this is inevitable when first launching something. Ask NASA; the Apollo rockets used the vast majority of their fuel just to lift off and travel the first 20 miles. The rest of the 240,000 miles were a breeze in comparison.
The problem is that it’s easy to get used to working hard and being very very busy – and not checking whether what we’re busy with will actually produce the results we want.
Unfortunately, the way we assume business works when we first try it for ourselves is not always correct. I know I invested considerable effort into projects early on that didn’t pan out the way I expected. That’s why it’s great to get tips from people who have been there before us, because it’s like taking a sneaky shortcut.
On Wednesday November 19th you can come and learn from 3 experts who have tried all the stuff that doesn’t work in launching a business and have then found the stuff that does. Mike, Judith and John of the Creative Entrepreneurs Club will be boiling down all those years of experience into 3 critical things that will help you make twice the money in half the time (and have some fun while you’re doing it).
Come to November Scanners Night and find out how to step off your own hamster wheel.
