Some people like to quote Churchill or Gandi or Shakespeare.
Pht! That’s so predictable!
Goal #1: Get Started
Starting your own business so you can have more time is like having a baby so you can get more sleep.
That’s why last Monday, during a national holiday, when normal people were relaxing in the park, I was working in the park.
I was shooting videos for my new youtube channel.
Help! I make English mistakes!
How many hours of video were just uploaded to youtube?
The answer: 300.
And that’s not 300 hours yesterday.
