Hi Chris and Susan here...
Welcome to another Monday
Let's talk today about being an online entrepreneur
We're very active on social media especially Facebook and if you are like us (even if it's only a short time on the platform) as you scroll through your newsfeed you're going to come across a lot of ads
"3 simple ways to _________"
"How I bought a lambo in 32 minutes"
"Why you such, I don't and how to fix it"
OKAY
We're being a little sarcastic
However, those people who are on your newsfeed, (or your inbox even)...
Or maybe even the people that you compare your business to?
Well...
The results aren't really realistic for the way you likely want to run your business
YES, they are possible BUT
Let's explain
If you look at the Stock Market, there are two types of people who use it
Day Traders and Long Term Investors
Day Traders
Buying and selling... spending time figuring it all out... understanding every element
Long-Term Investors
They know the companies they invest in... and they are investing for the long term
Thing is...
If a long term investor looks at a day trader...
What is going to happen?
They are gong to lose their marbles and thing they are behind, or even that there is something wrong with them.
With day trading, there is far more risk. However much more reward.
Now...
Here's the truth
Being able to be successful is possible
However entrepreneurship is typically a game played best as a long term investor
Yet
The majority of the people on your newsfeed, or the people that you're following...
They're playing the game like a day trader
Or suggesting to you that you play YOUR business like a day trader
Entrepreneurship and success is a process
It takes investment each and every day
It takes long-term investment of your time, your energy and thinking
It's not a single webinar or funnel...
It's not just ONE strategy...
Success isn't just one thing
And even if someone did just one thing, they made another 1,000 choices to ensure that one thing worked.
You've go YEARS to figure this out...
Because you're going to be an entrepreneur for the rest of your life
So...
Today and every day...
Live your life like a long term investor and reap the rewards of showing up every day
We hope you found these words of wisdom from one of our mentors made sense
It did to us which is why we wanted to share it with you
It also fits with today's best motivational video for entrepreneurs
It's at the end of this email
Meanwhile we're busy working on the final part of our passion project and we'll share that with you in the next few days
It's perfect fit for entrepreneurs bearing in mind how important our health and well being is during this pandemic
It seem that Covid 19 is not going away anytime soon and with an elderly parent to care for we're doing all we to protect our immune system and our business well into the future so we can do the best we can
