Should you do what you love and money will follow? Or should you make money first then free your time to do what you love?
Today, Rob shares with us how he got into this difficult situation of deciding whether to ditch the task of recording his audiobook Start Now Get Perfect Later because he doesn’t feel like it or just do it for the community and his business. He got caught up in this paradox but still managed to get out of it and get it done. Start listening to the latest episode to know how it can get tricky but with right motivation and willpower, you’ll be able to choose the right thing!
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Doing what you love and monetizing on it will not always be true. You should look into the business and commercial aspect of it. There are things that you love but could get tiresome if you do it every day.
There will be a lot of stuff you don’t like doing with what you love. Outsource tasks that will burn you out. Hire someone who could help you with admin tasks, dealing with clients, etc.
If it needs to be done, it should be done. If your community or customers perceive something valuable and you’re not really hyped to do it, have a word with yourself. Do it. For example, Rob feels that he could just get someone to record his audiobook since he does not want to do it. But he feels that doing it would make a big difference for the community and business, so he decides to do it. Once it’s done, it’s done anyway.
Decide whether it is right for you or not. Think long term. If you’re selling your soul and your life to the business, then where are you gonna be the next five years? So, think about it.
BEST MOMENTS
“I’m gonna do it because it makes a difference.”
“What do I love the most that are also monetizable?”
“Roll up your sleeves and sometimes, do the stuff that makes you uncomfortable. Don’t just hustle for the sake of it.”
“If it feels uncomfortable or scary and don’t wanna do it, smash through it and you’ll probably go to the next level”
