Elbert Blake outlines a plan for anybody to find success in business while also following their passions, gaining independence, and having a rich and fulfilling life. There are plenty of people out there who, like Elbert, have figured out how to ditch the 9-to-5 grind in favor of doing something that matters to them. Finding a job that you love and pays the bills isn't always about changing careers. If you want to test the waters with a little outlay of resources before committing fully, you may do so. The best advice from those who have figured out how to utilize their work as a vehicle to find happiness is collected here in a single, user-friendly resource. Discovering the sweet spot where your "talent" (even if you don't call it that) meets what other people are willing to pay for is the key. You won't even require a company plan, workers, or a master's degree to get started. Selling something you're already passionate about, finding customers who are willing to pay for it and setting up a payment system are the only requirements for success. Elbert doesn't just leave you guessing about how much money his band of misfit entrepreneurs needs; he gives you a precise figure. What did these people do in the first few weeks and months to create considerable cash; what were some of the major mistakes they made along the road; and what were some of the key insights that kept the firm afloat? Chris's guiding philosophies include: "Never teach a guy to fish; sell him fish" and "if you're excellent at one thing, you're good at something other." And when it comes to action vs planning, the latter always triumphs. Dreams of a miraculous light, buried riches, or a roadway paved with wealth were common among ancients who were unhappy with their current circumstances. We now realize that it is up to us to make positive changes. More still, if we make positive changes in our own lives, we'll be better equipped to assist others in making similar transformations. You can get a head start with this wonderful book.
