Is it tough? Is it hard? How do you get good at it?
No one tells you the whole truth about what it’s like building a business. Marketing paints this picture of entrepreneurship being a breeze, carefree, sitting on the beach enjoying another vacation. The preset public perception of being a business owner is that you are making a ton of money.
But the reality is sitting at your computer at midnight for the 6th night in a row crunching numbers doing bookkeeping.
As a kid, the idea of being an entrepreneur wasn’t something I had imagined or understood the concept of a business owner. The same is not true for the generation coming up now, where everyone has their own small business and side hustles.
For me, becoming a business owner was a giant mental leap from an employee being told what to do and given a set of expectations—versus now, running my own business having to set my expectations and accountability measures.

In all honestly, it is by far the most challenging, most rewarding thing I’ve ever done in my life. Tough shit is going to hit you from all directions, but at the end of the day, you’re building something that is 100% yours.
