TMBA458: Five Reasons You Won’t Be an Entrepreneur Next Year

Podcast 37:49 | Download | Stitcher | iTunes | Comment

Dan and Ian have been around the block a few times, and they have seen many entrepreneurs come and go.

What many don’t understand is that the majority of entrepreneurial success stories don’t happen overnight.

Nearly every sustainable path to wealth and freedom is a journey that can take years, and often decades to achieve.

This week’s episode is a list of the five common reasons that entrepreneurs will give up on their journey, or maybe not even embark on it in the first place.

If you identify with any of the reasons we mention on today’s podcast, fear not. You can use the knowledge and information we share on this show to help you get over your obstacles and further sustain your journey as an entrepreneur.
