Unconventional Entrepreneur

Shannon Jean

I talk a lot. Like you didnt know this already.

I talk a lot, except when I am working on something new.

When coming up with a new idea, side hustle, or business, I like to keep my mouth shut.

Why?

Because the world is full of naysayers and critics that let their own fears stop them from doing what you are going to do.

Its always better to talk about what you have DONE rather than what you will do.

Thats how I frame it anyway keeping my head down and quiet while working on a new project. This gives me tons of flexibility and freedom to see where my hard work will take me.

For example, I spent over a year trying to start a software company. The software company failed spectacularly, but it led me to start a $4M business selling handbags on Poshmark and publishing my first book, Poshmark Unlocked.

That led me to publish a #1 bestseller, eBay Unlocked.

Real quick! We have our first UE sponsor this week, Eversite!

What a spectacular failure, right? Since I didnt talk about that software business that flamed out, I could define my own success by how it led to my book business.

The best part of all this? You get to define your success any way you want.

This is one more reason to keep quiet while experimenting with something new.

Just be a bit vague when anyone asks you why you seem to have less free time.

My favorite response is: I am working on a new project, doing research, and learning new things.

No matter if your side hustle turns into a multi-million-dollar business or if it just makes you an extra few hundred dollars per month you will be successful at whatever level you are at.

You will be learning new things and opening gateways that you have no idea where they will lead. Have I mentioned that $1000 Brain Switch?

Never underestimate the power of small amounts of money. Most people cant begin to figure out how to make $100 (outside of getting a paycheck).

Once you figure out how to make $100, its a short step to making $1000, $10,000, and so on.

Most people will never take the step from $0 to $1. You are not like most people.

So, keep your late-night research to yourself. Dont talk up your big future plans.

Put your head down and focus on your project. Learn all you can and take small steps every single day to get what you want.

This is just the beginning. Let me know if you need a nudge in the right direction.

Cheers to your success!
