For every YouTube videos you see, there's probably an ad trying to sell you some program, some product, some courses on how to make money online. On one side, I love the fact that the Internet is now capable of actually making you money online. But on the other side, they are trying to make it sound so easy as well.

Now, online business is simple, but it's definitely not easy and you need to know what you're getting yourself into. If you are thinking of quitting your job to build an online business and since I had a high paying job, then I quit to build my own online business. I want to give you some perspective. If you're thinking of quitting your job and building your thing and see if that's actually for you or not.

I literally have one last questions for you because, well, now this is what I really want to open up the curtains to, like, you know, a big theater. We just open up with this video with this way of being in the same video as husband and wife, as partners in a business that we have created together. Obviously, we talked about pros and cons.

On working with your wife, though. You need to be very like, I'm not even very solid because you need to learn from each other and you need to be able to understand and compromise and come to understanding every single day and understanding each other's language. That is something that it's beautiful. And I'm grateful that we have found each other's language.

To still have some translations do every now and then. The app, the uprights doesn't the Google translate doesn't work. But what I really wanted to ask you, some people are ready to jump into a business, some others are not, and they're more comfortable staying in a 9 to 5 job. So my question is, what are the pros and the cons of having your own a business?
00:04:31:08 - 00:04:59:01

It's a good question because nowadays, especially especially the online business, is being portrayed as this land of creating a website, doing some videos, and just watch the bank account grow every day. So everybody thinks that influencers of people that have an online business, they are multi-millionaires, they live a best life and some do. But you only see the end of the story and you see the facade of things, especially on social media.

Everything is very pretty, but they never show you the harsh truth. Of course, you've got frustrations in your job as well, but it might be something that you enjoy doing. If I've got a friend that is a coder and you know him not making any names, but he absolutely adores its job is it clocks in starts working on this project it gets lost.

So it does over time by choice and then comes back home whenever it feels like to his family. He enjoys his holidays and he wouldn't want to have a business at all. So I'm like, Yeah, dude, if you're happy with your life, there's no reason why you should switch. The question is, if you start hating your life and your job, is there an option for you and what are you going to be facing if you give it a shot?
00:05:48:06 - 00:06:10:14

And I think people need to know that it's not going to be all flowers and roses. There are so many things you have no idea you need to discover about yourself. Forget about the technical stuff that you can learn in a few weeks by reading books. Getting courses. That's easy. What you don't know is what awaits you on the other side of your comfort zone.
00:06:10:16 - 00:06:36:17

And it's it's got to do with yourself. So it's 90% mental and 10% 10% knowledge, technical and mechanics and all that kind of stuff. So if you win the mental game, the mind game for yourself and you push yourself to achieve something that you never thought would be possible, then business is definitely an avenue that is going to give you great rewards.

If you are on a job, you might living paycheck to paycheck. You might be waiting for your annual review and the review is always disappointing. That was my situation and after a few years it took me only 15 to realize this. There's only so much I could get paid and the higher the raise, the higher is the stress and the effort that I need to put into what I have, whatever I had to do.
00:07:00:16 - 00:07:25:01
Unknown
And I started wondering, is that worth that? I don't think it is anymore. But then the problem is you quit your job, you start your thing, and instead of working 40 hours a week, you work 10 to 10. Today you ten exit and you get stuck in that. But that's just a phase. That's a phase. It's like you need to embrace the suck at the beginning.
00:07:25:03 - 00:07:43:13

I always love this. I think Alex or Moses said this or Tom believes it. Said there's embrace the suck because you suck, but you're not going to suck forever. That's why I was suggesting to really find the driver for you to get to the promised land, whatever you want to wake up every morning because I don't want to.
00:07:43:14 - 00:07:58:16

This I can do. I can do this, I can do this. But I also make sure you get some wins along the way because of the whys. There's only so much willpower that you can have and you can produce for yourself. When you have a business, you can lose everything, but you can gain everything and there's no glass ceiling there.
00:07:58:20 - 00:08:24:19

Would you ever go back into a 9 to 5 job even if there was a safe place? That's the thing. After six years of doing this stuff, we've learned a few things. We learned how to create an audience for ourselves organically. We learned how to manage our time, how to produce ten times for what regular people think. It's possible in a day.
00:08:24:21 - 00:08:44:23

We know how to create money by offering things that people want to have. We know how to create good products, how to make them beautiful to watch, and the user. We know all this stuff, right? I wouldn't go back to a job because I need money, because I know how to make money. Now. It wouldn't make any sense to me.
00:08:44:23 - 00:09:09:11
Unknown
Also because I don't want to be at somebody else's rules. I want to have my own rules because I know they're good. No, I wouldn't. I guess I would consider it if the position was something higher than me and important. But honestly, I think we have got to believe in myself. I rather build in myself. Well, keep building, keep growing.
