Other Quotes From the Chat with Travis Zigler:
- “the key is persistence. So, if you can read a book every single day about entrepreneurship and success you will become successful because you are persistent at filling your brain with something. If you blog every single day for one hour you will then have a successful website and whatever you do with that website whether you come out with a new product or come out with affiliate offers or write a book from all of the blogs that you’ve written. Having that persistent mindset.”
- “Entrepreneurs jump into something and they do absolutely everything”
- “you have got to think like a doctor, you are the doctor… And if you want to take it one step further think like you are the owner of the practice. And so now you are hiring the doctor and you are just kind of orchestrating the parts. That’s how you need to think of business”
- “thinking like an owner instead of a doer and a grinder I think will take you so much further and help shortcut the learning curve. So just hiring sooner and then orchestrating the parts instead of actually doing everything yourself”
- “if you are not doing something that you are passionate about get rid of it.”
