I Couldn't Not Do Something | Johnny Crowder

Becoming The Hero

Welcome back to The Hard Thing Podcast.

Today I share my conversation with founder of copenotes.com, Johnny Crowder.

Some highlights for today's show:

• The fun parts of building a business are like eating candy, everything else is vegetables.
• Try not to start a business. If you can't not start a business then you are one of the few people who should.
• Running a business is harder than starting a business.
• When you can't even do your own job right, then it's time to delegate.

Here are some action items for today's show:

1. Ask someone specific questions about your business idea before building anything

2. Present your idea to business-minded groups

3. Talk to your closest person about your struggle

4. Google what you're going through

5. Stop pretending that you don't have to work on Mental Health

Thanks for listening to today's show.

Hey, there adventurer! I appreciate you taking the time to do an investigation check and dig into the archives of the show. I want you to know that this is an old episode back when the show was called The Hard Thing Podcast. The topics are still the same, though the format and some of the names are different. If you’re coming back to The Hard Thing Podcast, well surprise! We changed our name and some of our branding. Feel free to hang out in the archives and listen to the wonderful old episode of the Hard Thing Podcast, or take on a new adventure by listening to some of our current episodes. Either way, happy adventuring.
