About Step Zero Before the Hustle: How to Prepare Yourself for the Journey of Entrepreneurship
Launching a business is less about a great idea but more about the capacity to execute that idea.
This book is made to help aspiring entrepreneurs prepare the mindset and skills to launch and sustain a viable business that they enjoy.
Forget ‘unicorns’ – this book is about the REAL foundation of lasting wealth: YOU. Most business books obsess over the ‘big idea’. This one gets it: ideas are cheap, execution is everything.
The book tackles the tough questions:
– How do you build a mindset that learns relentlessly, not just regurgitates knowledge?
– How do you truly know yourself – strengths, weaknesses, and all – to build a team that complements you?
– How do you turn failure into fuel, not let it burn you out?
– How do you master focus in an age of distraction, turning motivation into consistent action?
– How do you build genuine relationships, not just transactional networks?
– How do you influence without manipulation, say ‘no’ without guilt, and craft a story that resonates?
If you’re tired of surface-level ‘hustle’, this book is a deep dive into the inner game of entrepreneurship. It’s not about getting rich quick; it’s about building a life of meaning and impact.
