A few years ago, I quit my job to go into business for myself, FULL TIME. I had about 12k in savings (that I took from my firefighter 401k), an inconsistent 5-8k per month coming in from my business, and no team. But I did have a vision, a burning desire to make it happen, and the support from my wife. Since then, revenue has increased by 5x, my team has expanded, and we are now serving clients literally all around the world. I consider my leap one of the best decisions I have ever made. Maybe you or someone you know is considering going into business full time, instead of screwing around trying to create a side-business. It is not easy. You’d be wise to have a plan. In this episode I read you the letter I wrote to my family once I decided to quit, and I will show you how you can have the confidence and certainty you need to enter the jungle and create a business that helps to change the world.

Putting in more hours, building a team, really making a living doing what you love. Most want to do it, but they just don’t know how.
