What if people stopped limiting themselves from starting something because their idea isn't quite ready? What if people actually tried new things instead of worrying about fear of failure? Well, welcome to the world of entrepreneurship. That's exactly how you get started. We've been raised to hear "No" so often that we begin to believe we can't do things. The reality: we CAN do things.
You don't have to be a professional or super experienced to start. Hamish McKay, CEO & Co-founder of Order Editing, did just that. After working customer service for a year at a company, he asked team members what took the most time out of their day. He discovered there was a simple solution right under his nose. Then, he went out and built that solution.
On this episode of The Longer Game, we dissect why people don't take more chances, why they need to, and how to deal with the outcome, be it a flop or a huge success. Don't wait until you're in the perfect spot to listen to this one. Put in your earbuds and press play. Now.
