Just conquer your niche and you'll be very happy. good luck Chris You don’t want to conquer the whole world anyway — too much paperwork when you own it.

Just conquer your niche and you’ll be very happy.

good luck Chris

You have to be all in. No thinking 'what if this doesn't work.' The correct response is 'how do i make this work.' It's all in the attitude. Your worst of this week is not bad. Take want went 'wrong' and learn from it. How will you do it differently next week? When I first started my business nothing went according to plan - and still doesn't. But you have to keep trying and throwing yourself back out there. Livin' the dream is not always easy - but it sure beats working!

Have a direction, work in that direction, and adapt with what comes your way. Things you planned wont pan out, think you never expected will pop up. Planning is overrated.

One thing I have learned is that you don't always accmplish much on a day to day basis...but you have to realize that every one of those posts, conversations, comments, tweets - can lead to something in the future that will surprise you. It often doesn't feel like real work...but it is - just less tangible than office work many times. Good luck on week 2!
