Can’t Judge An Entrepreneur By The Cover 11/17/18. Something struck me recently about the changing ideas of what makes one an entrepreneur, hustler, influencer, business leader, etc…. This last week I’ve interviewed a few entrepreneurs, hosted a small business/entrepreneur event and been in multiple meetings. Whenever I looked at the people involved, I realized there was no “set” type of person. Old, young, male, female, suit-and-tie or jeans and a t-shirt types. All types of people are pursuing their careers or other passions while trying to find ways to make it all work. That’s the common bond – making your “thing” work because that’s what you want to do with your life.

There are common traits of successful people. Drive, determination and work ethic. You gotta want it and be willing to work for it. Not just long, hard hours but odd, not convenient hours. Are you willing to do more than “the other guy/girl” to be successful? That’s what really matters. Not what you look like, where you came from, what your favorite band is or how “cool” you are.

Career, Side-Hustle or Hobby – Levels of Entrepreneurship 1/12/19. I go through the following levels of entrepreneurship: side hustle, project-based, outside interest, second career and hobby. Each has its own set of rules, expectations and return on investment (or lack thereof). If your full-time/part-time J-O-B isn’t enough, there are a few options.  Let’s clear up some confusion about the differences and similarities between having a career working for someone else or being an Entrepreneur and the levels of transition in between. There are many options for “being your own boss” with levels of risk, freedom, and fringe benefits. Let’s talk about it.
