1/ MailerLite account approval
Had a little hiccup setting up MailerLite but their support team came through and we were approved!
Working on side projects changed my life's trajectory.
Everyone can start one to create their own luck, just like I have with mine.
Here's why I think they're important:
1/ Side projects are an incredible learning vehicle
Most knowledge is internalized through experience. You'll probably learn a lot better through reading or watching something, then practicing it, than just being stuck in the theory stage.
They enable you to learn by doing.
2/ Side projects help you get hands-on with your passions
You get to work on things you truly love and create stuff you're really passionate about.
A wantrepreneur is someone who would like to start a business and thinks and talks about doing so, but never gets started.
Don't be a wantrepreneur. Be an entrepreneur.
Here are a few things that differentiate the two:
An entrepreneur builds a specific audience to serve
A wantrepreneur shouts randomly, and assumes customers will find his/her product
An entrepreneur invests in himself/herself (tools, mentors, coaches & guides) and constantly learns
A wantrepreneur does not invest in himself/herself, and tends to gravitate towards downloading a lot of free stuff, but ends up dabbling or not commiting seriously to anything
