Feeling the Pressure after Starting Your Own Business?

Bryan Sarff, CEO of True Wealth and Company.

Very few people talk about the feeling new entrepreneurs get when they start their own businesses. It can be a beautiful thing, but sometimes it can make you feel more trapped than you did in your corporate job. Most business owners want to achieve freedom in life, but when they start a business they don’t get the freedom they want. Find out how to break free from that situation in this episode with Bryan Sarff, a successful entrepreneur.

Here are the top 3 lessons you can learn:

Lesson #1: Multi-Generational Wealth Can Be a Learning Curve

Passing your wealth through generations is amazing to see, but it requires work. David and Bryan talked about how entrepreneurs can teach the next generation business principles. The business doesn’t have to be the same– it could be different, according to the new generation’s interests and likes. But more importantly, the responsibility must be accepted willingly by the next generation. This is how you achieve multi-generational wealth.

Lesson #2: You Have To Cross The Desert

For you to achieve freedom, you must cross the desert; meaning, you have to take risks to leave behind things that will hinder you from reaching the other side. It’s a bit scary, but this is how David and Bryan became successful– it takes courage and sacrifice to step into the unknown. A lot can go wrong when starting a business, and there’s more to it than people starting out realize. It’s important to assess your own situation, determine what you can and can’t risk losing, and move forward from there. It’s also important to remember that there can be huge success as well. This is what we call high risk, high reward.

Lesson #3: Surround Yourself With The Right People

Surround yourself with people who will guide you through the desert. It could be your friends, your family, business partners, or clients. The reality is that successful people can’t be successful by doing it alone. They always have their mentor, their teacher, their guide, that made the ladder for them to achieve freedom and success in life. Surround yourself with people who have been what you are going through, and you’ll find that they can provide you with peace of mind and advice to help you reach the other side.
