You Will Find Most People Really DO have Agendas Except …
Ironically, the people who support you the most … want the LEAST!!! They see the value of your business and they don’t have time to play games with you. The biggest clients are ALWAYS the BEST clients. (well at least for ME)
I have celebrity contacts who have said over the years that they can’t trust anyone and I can honestly say this is true of most entrepreneurs too. Your job is to live your passion and the money comes after that but then it seems it’s everyone else’s job to separate you from your money.
People are EXCELLENT at selling themselves as the second coming of Jesus then delivering a truckload of Hippo shit after you take the time to train them and hire them. You are trying to build a business and they are trying to pay their Cricket cell phone bill.
I had one potential writer tell me, and I kid you not … “If you pay me now for the next two weeks, (this is before she did any work) I will give you an extra week of work on the house. I have to pay for my motel room and I have to do it by tomorrow.”
She sent me a link to writing credited to someone else online and told me she was a ghost writer for the story. I guess I needed to go up to a wall and bang my head against it to see if it hurt.
Another time, I posted a job in one my email blasts to the industry and someone wrote me back, “This would be a good job for my niece. She works at Walmart. She will be at work on Wed around 10 am, can you call the store and ask for her and tell her about the job?” Sure, after I take my head off and put it on the nightstand before I go to sleep.
Becoming an entrepreneur is a great risk, but it can be equally rewarding.
In the future, we can hope that there will be a complete end to racism and prejudice. Entrepreneurs can play a huge role in changing our world as well as society itself.
Great risks with great rewards.
Kevin,
I command you for thoughtful advise. Prejuce s reality; but ignore prejudices for bigger purpose. Prejudice is like an iceberg, it is solid like rock but you can melt it, like heat of Sun does it. Shine like Sun with your passion and perseverence and prejudice will turn into cash partner. Be patient and rise above all negetive obstacles.
Thanks Kevin. Keep up good work. Good luck.
May God richly bless you.
Thank you and yes you are so right!
K
