We are talking about this topic a lot in the 48 Days Eagles Community this month. There are so many Eagles who have a heart for ministry. But that doesn’t mean you can’t thrive financially.

How can I grow my business when I have no time for prospecting?
This is a very common issue among entrepreneurs. How to keep your pipeline full so you don’t experience the “entrepreneurial roller coaster.” In my 15 hours a week formula, which you can expand incrementally based on the number of hours you spend on your business, I recommend you spend 20% of your time marketing your business each week so you don’t get caught at the end of a big project with no prospects for the future.How do I stay motivated while I’m waiting to leave my job?
No one wants to be a lame duck employee for very long. If you’re starting a side business, you should be ready to exit your day job 90-180 days from starting something new, unless you decide your side business is only going to be a hobby, which there is nothing wrong with. But once you’ve made the decision to leave your day job, 30 days is a maximum I would stay, as long as you can give your employer your 100% during your work hours.Resources:
