What are you building?

Have you ever bumped into a friend or acquaintance from way back? You catch up by asking each other the standard questions: "How's it going?" "What have you been up to?" "What's your job?" “Did you get married?” But here's the twist: nobody ever asks, "What are you building?"

Think about it. We're all in the business of something, right? Buying, selling, creating – it's all part of the game. And guess who's behind those products and services? Entrepreneurs, the builders who dreamed them up.

People get all excited when they hear "entrepreneur," like it's some magical unicorn. But here's the thing: it shouldn't be special. Building something should be the norm, not the exception.

Even if you're working a regular job, think about it this way: you're not just "working for the company," you're building with them. You're helping the owners grow their wealth, just like any entrepreneur.

So, here's the secret sauce: picture yourself as a one-person LLC, the ultimate boss of you. This mindset shift makes all the difference. You'll stick with companies that value you, and bounce when they don't.

The future, my friend, is built by idea builders. And that's you! You can create a whole new business, or maybe a fresh department within an existing one. It doesn't matter what you build, because you're bringing new energy, jobs, and well-being to the world.

This future can be built anywhere, from your kitchen table to a coffee shop with your crew. Imagine the conversations shifting from "Where do you work?" to "What are you building?" That's a game-changer.

The future isn't just gonna happen. Someone's gotta roll up their sleeves and make it a reality. So, what are you waiting for? Could that builder be you?
