Episode 89
Welcome back to Firing the Man! Do you need the inspiration to pump yourself up in your entrepreneurial journey? Well, this episode is perfect for you. Ken and I talk about how we inspire ourselves every single day to keep doing what we’re doing. This is particularly crucial for us who have already fired the man. We chose to leave our stable jobs to take back the most precious resource any person can ever have--our time.
Do you want to fire the man too but are afraid about what can happen? Listen to these stories of ordinary people who stayed the course as they became masters of their craft. Lastly, please know that Ken and I are here for you as you start your own “firing the man” journey.
Listen to this episode and learn what keeps us motivated and inspired to accomplish our goals!
