Just a Mouse Dreaming of Becoming an Elephant

This week's lesson included Kathy Huber who spoke about a passion in creating. She also spoke about the joy of creating something. Taylor Richards spoke of his excitement in being in the top 20 and top 10 of top boating dealerships 2 years in a row. I have found when I create material for others, I get excited, especially when I can see they benefit from it. This is one of the reasons I do YouTube. While I don't get a whole lot of money from it, I do get more than I would have had than if I had done nothing. More than the money, though, I get satisfaction that others are enjoying something I've made. Earning from my work helps by showing me I've made something of good quality. My goal is to always create content that is better than what I have done previously. This is the passion that I have. For instance, I have been studying for the last month or two on how to improve the audio on my videos. Before that, I studied how to edit my video in better ways. Any time I focus my efforts on improving my content in any small way, I feel it affects in a great way. Eventually, I believe that my content will resemble a very professional output, also resulting in financial benefits for my family and me.

Similar to previous lessons, I feel the subject of passion stood out. As an entrepreneur, it's not about starting big, it's about taking an idea that you can envision becoming giganticly successful  and constantly trying to perfect it.  Starting small is difficult, but hugely beneficial. Through perfecting the system, product, or other kind of output, the customer is benefited and can comprehend the increased value. Not only that, but by the time your business becomes "viral," you're already putting out a great product. I feel that's more important than trying to start huge and losing your audience or customer base because you haven't had the trial of fire to get through the kinks in the bad product. This is what makes an entrepreneur successful.
