Intrinsically, we're all entrepreneurs. In fact, everyone here on Warrior Forum are entrepreneurs. Of course it takes a lot of drive and perseverance, as well as all the technical and business nitty gritty to make it work. Watch this TED Talk as Satish Kanwar, Shopify VP for Product, talks about finding the natural entrepreneur in us and getting ready for the future of work.

    Entrepreneurship, specifically online entrepreneurship, is definitely the future, without a shadow of a doubt.

    I spent years learning all the technical and business nitty gritty.

    I've been down many rabbit holes, and wasted lots of time making mistakes. I can tell you the steepest learning curve was trying to grapple with SEO. Things in that space change all the time.

    But what never changes are basic marketing principles.

    Looking back, I think I knew this all along, but I have a tendency to overcomplicate things. One basic principle to make money online is to keep things simple.

    Simply find a product that pays a hefty commission, and preferably also pays good monthly recurring commissions.

    Then set up a simple landing page, that leads to a simple bridge page. (this pre-sells the product) then link that page to the product.

    The landing page will collect emails for you, and an autoresponder will sell stuff to them for years to come.

    Once that is set up, you're only job is to drive traffic, by helping people.

    You can do that on any social media. Facebook groups etc. Anywhere you see people that may have an interest in what you're selling.

    The platforms will always change. Facebook, Instagram, TikTok etc. But the principles will never change.

    Totally agree with the overall sentiment here. Cultivating the entrepreneur skill stack is one of the best ways of making one resilient to whatever the future holds, and capable of flourishing no matter the environment. COVID19 has only made that more true.

    For sure - I think many of us here do. I've also found it's - somewhat counter intuitively - much more efficient to stop endless "information gathering" after a certain point and just start doing things/taking some type of action, no matter how small. There's so much more to be learned by real life trial and error versus in -the - clouds theorizing.

      Agree. I would also add that putting things into action is the only way we actually learn what works and what doesn't. Without experience knowledge is forgotten. Action leads to insight and wisdom.

      From what I've seen after trying things that don't work and things that do, you find out pretty quickly if your idea is going to work out or not. Sometimes the best thing to do is to change your plan of reaching your goal, but keep moving forward towards it.

      If something is too difficult early on that's often that's a sign that it's not going to work out over the long run. I'd rather do something I'm good at already and build on that than attempt to move mountains.

      If you want to travel on a budget, you can do this cheaply. $2000 a month flying economy and staying in budget accommodation (not hostels) will get you around a lot of the world. It's what I did. Even expensive countries like Japan have cheap accommodation even in the big cities. You don't really need that much to travel, and you can do it perpetually on a tourist visa.

      what are the skill stack of an entraprenture.. and are we using scott adams definition of a skill stack that leads to success ....skill stack that build system instead of hit goals ..

      ..

      you can fire a real entrepreneur at some point get him or her out of the business and it can continue to function and grow..if the non entreprenure is removed from the business they start..the business quickly falls apart


      the guy who buy a pressure cleaning machine and pressure cleans sidewalk in front of businesses and preople drive ways ..and does that for the next 30 years ..is considered an entrepreneur steve job bill gates elon musk ..entrepreneurs ..

      for there are tens of millions of people who can do something like the guy with the pressure washer and make a living..there are only a few thousand who end up making billions

      there is no shame if financially your potential means you can make a good living with your business ..the same way men do really feel ashamed if they work out but will never have the build of a competitive body builder ..or you you cook but never expect to win a michelin star

    future of entrepreneurship is that the connection between new business ideas and job-creation will become weaker.Nowadays, internet out-sourcing and automation already mean that many growing businesses can be run single for a long time. In the end, almost all businesses need to take on employees.

    I did not realize that Entrepreneur Magazine trade marked the word ENTREPRENEUR!
    .
    And they are very aggressive with suing people who use it.


    For example I would think "Fitness Entrepreneurs" is cool.


    "Entrepreneur Fitness?" They may come calling.

    Breaking traditional barriers and chasing your passion is the new way of earning a livelihood. Although, Entrepreneurship is more of a self-satisfaction practice that allows you to discover your world and pave roads to success. Certainly, you also have to go through failures even you are running an online business and you have to become well-versed with every nitty-gritty. but it promises you to learn lessons from pitfalls and help you grow your business in the long run.

      As technology continues to advance we will see companies using robots and AI to replace human labor. Many people will see being an entrepreneur as less scary as the work world is shaken up by things like the corona virus, technology, jobs being delegated across the world and other factors.

      Every single sentence pure gold my friend.


      Learning to make money, making money, managing money, scaling money...all separate niches, but once mastered, create riches.


      Sometimes people do get trapped. The reason Rich Dad Poor Dad was so successful is that it shook alot of people up on the illusion of what security was. Who cares if the dads were real...the knowledge was.

      But I was a bachelor for many years and still took me a long time to get my shiznit in order. But imagine people with kids working multiple jobs and we just tell them to suck it up and make it happen.

      The education system is built for the education system in my opinion.

      Thank the Universe we can actually type on a gadget at home and earn a living no matter how long it takes to figure it out.
