333. How to do what you say you're going...

Nick Huber
About this episode

When it comes to entrepreneurship, big or small business ownership, you hear the same advice all the time: Do what you say you are going to do, and you will succeed as a business owner. It sounds so easy, but the real problem is that most of us are terrible at managing expectations. It's bad business advice to just do what you said you'd do regardless of the evolving circumstances.

Find out in this episode what to do instead!

 

Thanks for listening!
