You Only Have One Life

In Entrepreneurial Lifestyle

Timothy Lebold recently quit his 9-5 job and went out on his own. In this post, he explains why:

Entrepreneurship is the epitome of change and discomfort. To have simply no idea what the day will hold or how the bills are going to get paid is something that could make climbing Everest seem easy. But if it is what you want to do and the challenge that you enjoy, get out there and go for it. Swing for the fences. Strive for greatness. Entrepreneurship thrives under distress and discomfort. Great innovation, great businesses, great things are created under pressure, not when a safety net exists. To steal a line from one of my old Wall Street colleagues, “Bulls make money, Bears make money, Pigs get slaughtered.” There is no fun, no reward for being unhappy, indecisive, bored or simply not doing what you want to do. Have a position, a dream, and stick to it until you make it happen.
