In 39 years of live, I’ve had some pretty good ideas that did not work. For example, what could have been a best-selling marketing book. But I kept my idea in draft form on my desk until the book came out; only my name was not on the cover and it was a best-seller.

 

There was a time I would host meet-up events between photographers and models and charge everyone who attended the events. But I failed to innovate overtime and the interest in the event died out. And so many more ideas I’ve had and tried to execute along the way.

 

I’ve done a lot of things as an entrepreneur that did not work. Today, we are talking about the biggest obstacles an entrepreneur faces when starting a new business. 

 

“We root for those who are trying to figure it out.”
