"Turn yourself into a person who makes ideas happen" - John Williams

Friends from all over the world had been telling me I should check out this man's work.

I finally met John William at a Startup Grind event at Roger Hamilton's villa here in Bali.

John is the author and founder of Screw Work, Let's Play and the new Screw Work Inside Track - a 6 month guided experience.

I brought him on the podcast today to talk about his method for starting a business in 30 days.

John takes us through the 5 part cycle business fundamentals, ideation, troubleshooting, hustle, and launch.

We talk about how Michelangelo got better as he painted the Sistine Chapel, and how you can apply the same method of improvement to you own business creation.

John will walk us through finding the right business niche and business model, creating time to work on our ideas, getting feedback from our tribe, and finally launching our product.

So if you are interested in becoming an entrepreneur for the first time or testing out a side hustle that can bring in some extra cash as quickly as possible, this is the episode for you!
