Brandon:
I think the thing that scares me the most and I know everyone wants it is um passive income and lifestyle business sounds fucking great but you’ve got to get there so get there first and then kind of soak it up later.
Brian:
I find a lot of people trying to soak it up before they have actually really gotten anything started and I have never seen that work.
Brian:
Yeah.
Brian:
You know even even doing making passive incomes hard or starting your own little thing is really, really hard, like I don’t care if it’s your pouring sand in a mason jar and selling it online, like it’s going to be hard, hard and you expect so you know maybe it’s not a great time to get a puppy or maybe you put off the family planning for a little bit, you know like it is going to be your everything if you want to get it to the point where it actually is like solving its business goal, it’s actually making you money and it’s happening.
Brian:
So expect to sacrifice, I’d say do whatever you can to get on the best pieces of technology is early as possible.
Brian:
It’s worth it to get on the good email platform vs The free funky one because these, you’re making a decision of like what is the architecture of your business for a very long time in switching is painful so like don’t go on some funky cheaper e commerce option, just go shop.
Brian:
If I just go Shopify, use good tools because they’re going to be your backbone and then probably get really good at recognizing what you’re not good at and try to find other people that are good at that I used to try to do too many things that I wasn’t good at and it’s cringe easy to look at it now.
Brian:
Like looking back like, wow, I should not have been doing that, but I should been doing more of what I was going to.
