Inventive Expert | Business Brains and Bold Moves 🧠💡"Take Risks To Make Things Happen" Expert Advice For Entrepreneurs w/ Cary PrejeanIt's a myth that's fairly common with business owners that I work with. The myth is that because I started the business and own it, I'm the best candidate to manage it. And that's usually very wrong because the people who go out and start businesses have some skill or a way to make more income than they would be working for someone else. They're entrepreneurs who see opportunities, take advantage of them, and take risks to make things happen. They're generally impatient with the rest of the world because they see what others don't.
