Some Real Advice from Donald Trump
Read the interview ‘Ten Questions with Donald Trump’ (its short). Gives a little insight into the mind of an entrepreneur: you have to believe in what you’re doing & you need to believe in your eventual success.
Having been there, done that, then done it again, Donald Trump knows what it means to start and build a business. I’m not a fan of the ‘Apprentice’, but this is good stuff. Just what I expect from Guy Kawasaki’s blog.
Friends regularly ask me for an update on my business and I love to give it to them because I like talking about what I do, but I sometimes feel like I’m boring them because not everyday is ‘exciting’. Find a faster way to do my accounting or a cheaper phone plan is awesome, but doesn’t make for great conversation. Truthfully, a lot of what you do operationally is only fun if you are part of the operation. I have my passion, but can’t always convey why.
Donald’s a great example of what energy and drive will accomplish. While his name is synonymous with success, his actual story is more balanced (from broke back to billionaire).
