Focus is one of the biggest killers of entrepreneurs out there. We can’t march to the same drum of society, but all too often, we try to march to the beat of ten drums at once and hope one of them is the one that will be the big break. Doing what you are doing while you are doing it is so important, actually being present and being on task is of massive value; most people are mentally off in space somewhere.

I think theres a lot of false ideas out there that people are adopting, as to the way that entrepreneurship works. Entrepreneur stories are missing the real story. Hustle can me hard work, not stupid work. I think people are starting to use the incorrect definition for hustle and I think we looked at not repeatedly running into the same wall but building a better and more effective way around the wall. Entrepreneur stories perpetuate the ideas that it must be the hardest thing you’ve ever done: On a couch, homeless in a shopping cart, credit cards maxed or last dollar. Now, its not to say those stories aren’t out there and very authetic, because they are; some very successful entrepreneurs have becomes more battle tested that way. I’m suggesting that operating thinking thats the way it has to be will cause you to make incorrect decisions or ones with incomplete data. In This Episode: Decide your goal. Figure out what it will take. Do some market research. Doesn’t have to be new, just more effective. Work

We have all been there, we were all young. I cannot help but to wonder have times really changed that much? In speaking with friends I think back, and yes, I was not that engaged as an individual. However, did I ever reach this level I am not really sure. It seems its not just a lack of engagement, but a total lack of effort. The youth today seems to totally lack any motivation. I say this not just about students, but at 27, I am also speaking about those of my own generation. I seem to know so many my age that not only do not work, but really seem to have no motivation for life. What has happened to us? I say this not as the old codger, but rather I say it just as an observer. This is not to say that all millennials are bad, because in fact they have been a huge source of innovation. However, the generation below myself is quite concerning to me. It seems that many things can be pointed to as part of the issue, not only the welfare state, but also technology as well. As a people we have little patience; soci

The Millennial generation I feel like gets a raw deal, there’s a lot of hustle there, but its a different type than a lot of people are used to, and because of that, they’re not sure how to react to it.

He has helped to put together a really active group in RECN and managed to not only meet Gary Vaynerchuk, but also run an even with him.

Laura Coe is an entrepreneur, author, and mom. At 24, she co-founded a healthcare tech business and later sold it to a Fortune 500 where she stayed on as an executive. After 11 years of success in business, she found herself very successful, and very unfulfilled. So, she tried yoga, alternative medicine, and anything she thought would help me feel fulfilled. But nothing worked. Obsessed with the idea of fulfillment, she dove into its philosophical roots and discovered that she was "emotionally obese"-- she had layers upon layers of assumptions, fears, and negative thoughts that had piled on over the years like "emotional fat" and in order to lose them, she had to learn to shed the "emotional weight."

The value in mentorship. Learning when and how to delegate. Understanding the difficulty in being an entrepreneur.   Laura's Fav

Now he's helping other entrepreneurs do the same. He's applied the Pareto Principle to marketing in a way that other didn't think was possible. Last year, at a conference called DCBKK, He listened to a speaker named Jake Puhl talk about mindset. If you're making less than 250k/year, he said, your problem is probably mindset. He started asking himself framing questions to reveal where he was on his own way. In the end, it all boiled down to assuming things were impossible just because he hadn't seen them succeed yet. He then went on journey, which initially, was not a profitable one, but succeeded in creating freedom for himself; here's his story.
