BONUS NEW CONTENT + Best of SMH Flashback from exactly 4 years ago. My parting gift to you. This week was (in 2021) the 10th anniversary of leaving my last corporate job and starting my own business. I didn't have a plan, but I did have the essentials: Ability, Passion, Effort, Attitude, Collaborators, Expectations, Ethics, Differentiation and last but certainly not least... a Value Proposition.

What does this mean for you? Let's talk about it. After 10+ years of successfully growing my business The Golding Group, I have a lot of insights and advice for any business owner, from idea to execution to management.

#SaturdayMorningHustle Flashback The Accidental Entrepreneur from September 12th, 2020. If I can do it, you can do it. Did you know I have owned or operated my own business (of some sort) for 35+ years now? I didn't even know the word Entrepreneur when I started. Now, I have embraced the role of Entrepreneur, helping others do the same. It's not for everyone, but everyone can benefit from adding an entrepreneurial mindset.

There's a long line of business ventures I have been involved in since I started my first when I was just 15 years old. Listen today to hear the whole story, from the music business to marketing to business development and now economic development and higher education.

Listen, then make a comment with your story. Let's talk about it! The Saturday MorningHustle podcast is for anyone willing to come in early, stay late or hustle on the weekend to be successful. http://bit.ly/ListenToSMH

Can't Judge An Entrepreneur By The Cover 11/17/18. Something struck me recently about the changing ideas of what makes one an entrepreneur, hustler, influencer, business leader, etc.... There is no "set" type of person. Old, young, male, female, suit-and-tie or jeans and a t-shirt types. All types of people are pursuing their careers or other passions while trying to find ways to make it all work. That's the common bond - making your "thing" work because that's what you want to do with your life.

Career, Side-Hustle or Hobby - Levels of Entrepreneurship 1/12/19. I run through the levels of entrepreneurship: Side Hustle, Project Based, Outside Interest, Second Career and Hobby. Each has its own set of rules, expectations, and return on investment (or lack thereof). If your full-time/part-time J-O-B isn't enough, there are a few options. There are many options for "being your own boss" with levels of risk, freedom, and fringe benefits. Let's talk about it.
