Why needing to hear words of encouragement is weak on its best day

Sometimes one of my readers will send me screenshots from social media. Like Facebook, Twitter, etc. And I got this screenshot recently (guy who sent it prefers to remain anonymous for some reason, although I don’t know why) from something Robert Kiyosaki tweeted that Musk said. Something I personally find quite amusing. Here’s what he said: === WORDs of GENIUS: When ELON MUSK was asked “What words of encouragement would you give to a person to become an ENTREPRENEUR?” MUSK replied “If you need encouragement to become an entrepreneur you’ll never be an entrepreneur.” AMEN ELON === I doubt the life coaches on Facebook shooting videos on their way to lunch in Bali approve. But nobody cares what they think anyway. Nor should anyone in that world even be on my list in the first place. So if they are, and this offends them, they got nobody to blame but themselves. Whatever the case: I apply what Musk says to so-called accountability groups and coaches too. If you need that, you’re way behind the 8 ball. And probably not selling or promoting what you should be. i.e., playing someone else’s game instead of your own. All right, enough. People reading this either get it or they don’t. If you don’t, that’s okay. elBenbo forgives your ignorance. If you do get it? And especially if you're a freelance copywriter who wants a change, and would like to be your own client, selling your own offers, and controlling your own destiny… with no word of encouragement or accountability group needed?

And for the love of all that’s good and beautiful… It is NOT a “biz opp” thing. It's for those who have their own freelance copywriting business who want to be Alt-Copywriters. The amount of work required and the learning curve is big. Simple, yes. But not easy by any stretch of the imagination. And you should prepare to spend several months learning, implementing, and using the info. It’s a framework for running, growing, and managing your own clientless-copywriting operation. It’s not a checklist of stuff to do or a done-for-you thing. Thinking, working, and, yes, failing are required. You know, like with any legitimate business..
