I don't understand why people watch these pep talk style commentators. If you need someone else to motivate you, I'd seriously question whether or not you have the gusto to make it for the long haul.
Going further... I can't help but wonder if watching this releases some sort of endorphin for the want-to-be entrepreneur. These guys prey on hope, mainly, and by giving these pep talks, I think a lot of of people get temporary hope that if they just dig in, they'll be a millionaire too.
You really need to ask yourself if you're attracted to these motivational speakers: why do you need motivating? The real secret to success, I believe, is digging in to an endeavor you love.
my business does millions in revenues and i watch him and others. mainly because i find a lot of what they say is true, and i'm looking for information on how to get to the next order of magnitude in revenues.
their audience isn't just wannabes, it's also successful people looking for guidance/validation/vindication/whatever. it's not just "motivation", it's also "information".
talking shit on the internet to successful people isn't new. you're not doing anything new. it's actually really tired. so very, very tired. yawn. zzz.
i didn't say any of those things. i said i had a small business. your favorite neighborhood restaurant probably does more revenues than my business, but it's still in the millions.
having a business with a single one million in revenues means you probably make < 100k in personal income and is the first to take a paycut when things turn south.
i see you're building a product. just wait until it starts making some money and you'll learn all of these things in due time.
