Mentor to Millions by Kevin Harrington,Mark Timm Pdf

Kevin Harrington, one of the original "sharks" of the TV hit Shark Tank, and serial entrepreneur Mark Timm take you on a journey that radically redefines what it means to truly succeed--at work, at home, and in every area of life. On one of the best days of his life as an entrepreneur, Mark Timm found himself sitting in his car at the end of his driveway. In just a minute he would go into the house and greet his wife and children. But as he basked in the success he'd just had, he also had to face a surprising realization: he didn't really want to go home. Mark knew that once he stepped into the happy chaos of his family, the euphoria of the day would evaporate. His work life and his home life might as well have been two different worlds. And at that moment, he acknowledged--as he puts it--that "my businesses were getting my first and my best, while my family got my last and my least." Mentor to Millions charts Mark's journey from that pivotal moment to a whole new understanding of how work, life, and relationships can coexist and thrive together. His guide through this journey: his accomplished mentor, Kevin Harrington, one of the original "sharks" from Shark Tank, who shares amazing stories and imparts invaluable wisdom about how to win in business and in every area of life. This deeply personal, easy-to-follow book invites you to join Mark and Kevin on the journey. Every page pulls back the curtain on entrepreneurship at the highest level, revealing priceless business lessons--which lead to the biggest lesson of all: combining the best of business, family, and personal life. If you're succeeding in business, struggling, or just starting out, and want your life at home to be what you've always dreamed it can be, this is the lesson you need to learn: the most valuable business you'll ever own, work for, or be a part of isn't the business you go to every day, it's the one you go home to.

Creative Grit by Cassandre Van Bakel,Rob Manne,Matt Brennan,Elizabeth Hartyoon,Dave Jackson,Jim Habbal,Li Lu,Aamar Khwaja,Frances Schagen,Ivan Ho Pdf

In 2020, the world was plunged into a spiralling ball of panic, uncertainty and death as the covid-19 pandemic hit. Not only did the world record a high number of deaths, but there was also worldwide economic disruption to levels last recorded in the time of the Great Depression as many businesses folded under the weight of the constraints the virus imposed; with the stay-at-home orders and limited human interactions, it was difficult for many entrepreneurs to stay in business. In this book, 10 amazing entrepreneurs collaborated together with their business skills and strategies that helped them navigate the hardship and uncertainty as a result of the pandemic to not only survive but thrive using creative methods. From the stables of founders of Shameless Buns, Inflectiv, Ceecee's Gift Baskets and more, what you are about to encounter in the ten chapters of this book are relatable personal stories; from how a new mom started and scaled her business, to the food truck industry and how a few business owners picked themselves up from losing more than half of their revenue streams and launched new models to overcome the hurdles set by the pandemic. This book will show you elements of creativity and utilizing resources around you that you might not have realized to increase cashflow for your business. You will also learn different systems to effectively market and attract new customers for business growth and develop new income streams from your expertise. Our experiences have helped our businesses, other businesses and even non-business owners look at things through a different lens to overcome setbacks and create new revenue opportunities. From The Creative Grit Authors ... Ivan Ho ~ "Focus on what's strong and not what's wrong ~ How leveraging your expertise into multiple income streams can protect you during uncertain economic times." Cassandre Van Bakel ~ "Dream, try, and persevere ~ Make the space you need for yourself in the world of business, and inhabit it with determination, hard work, flexibility, and passion." Rob Manne ~ "Don't allow yourself to be put in a box. Listen to the market, think about what you bring to the table, and take action to re-invent yourself." Matt Brennan ~ "The pandemic has changed the landscape of food businesses as we know it and right now is the best time to start your dream food business for next to nothing!" Elizabeth Hartyoon ~ "Seek to change your mindset and not just your address" - How newcomers to Canada settled and transitioned successfully despite obstacles and challenges." Dave Jackson ~ "Adapting to change is the spice of life. Expect it, don't fear it. Plan for change. What goes up must come down, but nothing states that it can't come back up again." Jim Habbal ~ "Creative thinking could be a great source of joy, and when applied to business, it turns into creativity in action. Ultimately, when pushed against challenging times, it becomes creative grit." Li Lu ~ "The Covid pandemic taught me how to turn a crisis into an opportunity. I want other entrepreneurs to learn from my mistakes, try my winning strategies and, most importantly, relate to my emotional journey." Aamar Khwaja ~ "There is a difference between the creative that merely produces product or draws lines on a canvas, than the one who actually experiences their creation." Frances Schagen ~ "When you have a deep understanding of your money, it stops being the reason. You know that you can make a decision based on what you need and want. Then you figure out the money to support you in that decision."

The Entrepreneurial Identity Crisis by Erik Rokeach Pdf

Why do entrepreneurs constantly search for success, when it is happiness they are after? It is this question that many never stop to think about on their entrepreneurial journey. This blind push has created a crisis that is driving many entrepreneurs down the wrong path, and leading to lives of complete unhappiness, frustration, and a loss of who they are. Regardless of their success.Despite how they feel, they push even harder hoping that they will be able to move forward and feel better once they reach the next level. But no matter what they do, or what level they are at, these deep feelings, thoughts, and emotions, never go away.The constant barrage of emotions, influence, and beliefs has only strengthened this crisis. It has become a large epidemic that very few people are talking about or even realize exists. It is destroying who entrepreneurs are, and ultimately keeping them from what they really want."The Entrepreneurial Identity Crisis" aims to answer why this is happening to so many entrepreneurs, and why so many of them don't even realize they have been drawn into this crisis.Along with explaining why this is happening, this book aims to show entrepreneurs what they can do to not only reach the level of success that they want, but to feel happy, content, and fulfilled as well.
