Great Post!!!! Time, this is the secret to everything.
Here is my example, I have owned my business for almost 15 years (energy consulting). With the changes that comes over that long of a period, it had become harder and harder to make a buck.
My partner and I decided last October to start a solar company, and not just a solar company that puts a couple panels on a residential roof, but installations that will cover 10 acres of land.
Only one thing, we knew nothing about it. We only knew that the environment was changing in the solar industry, solar product prices were dropping and incentives to put up solar projects were increasing. We learned all we could about the business and in 2 or 3 months we landed our first customer.
It was a big one, he wanted a specific return and to get that we had to install the largest solar farm in the state. We met with the local electrical provider and they put up wall after wall after wall. I felt like giving up 5 or 6 times, but I knew that if it was easy, everyone would be doing it and not just a few.
For 6 months we spoke with the electric provider and had governors and congressmen to call on our behalf and then just 2 weeks ago we were approved for a $6.7 million project, not bad sales for the first year.
I also have this same mentality for my R with my W, as long as I keep working on it, and continue to do the right things, I will eventually get what I want in the end.
We now have projects in Ontario Canada and South Carolina, With potential projects in Oregon and California and the most important thing was to have the guts to stick with it and fight through the tough times with a smile on your face and a determination in your gut.
