Young and Free: Prerequisite for Success
Let’s face it: In today’s business world you need to be young and free of attachments to strike it rich. It’s a dog eat dog world out there and you’re going to have to work quite a lot.
Of course, not only will you have to work quite a lot, you’ll need to be flexible and ready to take advantage of anything. That’s where the “free” part comes in.
I’ve got a young friend, he’s only 25, but he fits the bill perfectly. He’s single and he’s hungry. He’s willing to start from scratch and, best of all, he isn’t afraid of putting his nose to the grindstone for those 80 hour weeks. He decided to take the bull by the horns by going starting up his own business. He found a software developer who knew the internet inside out. This young man was also very ambitious. He left his safe job at the drop of a hat. They were both reaching for pie in the sky, and they were ready.
