Coaching Advice
Want to work for yourself, but getting stuck in your head? Iggy shared this encouraging advice:
1) Identify the problem you’re going to solve – if you’re not solving a problem for someone, you have a hobby, not a business!
2) Find people that have the problem you want to solve and offer them the solution or ask them if your solution will solve their problem.
