“It is far better to be exhausted from success than to be rested from failure." - Mary Kay Ash, founder of Mary Kay Cosmetics
Serious Entrepreneurs NEVER quit!
Of course, we have our moments when we are brain-dead from exhaustion.
But we get up and face the next day determined to make that next killer sale or rank #1 on Google.
Facing challenges head on with resolve and gusto is in the serious entrepreneur’s blood. Conquering the impossible is what we live and breathe for.
My motto for all of my adult life has been “Second Sucks!!”
Give up? Not even in my vocabulary.
Reality is, though, most entrepreneurs struggled before they hit it big.
Walt Disney? As a young man, he was fired from the Kansas City Star Newspaper because his boss thought he lacked creativity. He was forced to shut down the first company he formed, could barely pay his rent, and…
Even resorted to eating dog food!!
J.K. Rowling? Before finding fame as the author of the Harry Potter books, she was rejected by 12 publishers. The small publishing firm which reluctantly purchased Rowling’s first Harry Potter manuscript told her that she really ought to “get a day job.”
At the time when she was writing her first novel, her life was a mess - she was going through a divorce, living in a tiny flat with her daughter, and …
Living on government subsidies.
She is currently the second-richest female entertainer on the planet, behind Oprah.
The inspirational video “Don’t Quit” is worth a thousand words.
Most of you reading this are probably struggling to succeed in your home businesses.
If you’ve been told that online marketing and direct sales is a FAST, EASY, PAINLESS way to make millions…
You’ve been lied to!
Success takes time. Success takes a lot of trial and error. Success takes dealing with negative people who expect you to fail.
Don’t quit! Hang in there.
To truly be a Serious Entrepreneur, as Walt Disney wisely suggests, “The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing.”
