It's a weird feeling to pitch an idea and everyone in the room agrees with every part of the idea. No pushback. No brainstorming. No trying to beat the idea little. It sounds like a dream, but it rarely brings the best results. You need to find someone who is willing to pushback -- at least sometimes.

We talk about that and more.

Monique does a good job of breaking down the numbers of what it looks like to own a franchise, run a self-storage facility, and help large corporations get patents. Any of these jobs and more might be what you want to do, but it is helpful to understand the work and reward from each. We do that on this episode.
