I had coffee last year with a guy - I won't use his real name - who told me he was "building a business." I asked what it did. Dropshipping jade face rollers. I made him say it twice. Jade face rollers. He'd found them on Alibaba for $1.20

    Passive income is a bullshit job for entrepreneurs. Except they get so wrapped up in escaping the grind that they don’t even realize that they’re taking psychic damage from not doing anything worth doing (or they’re the type to not care)

    What actually makes money hasn’t changed. You find something people need. You get good at providing it. You charge a fair price and you keep showing up even when it’s tedious and even when you don’t want to. You build relationships over years. You build reputation over years. None of it is passive, and none of it has ever been passive! All of it revolves around giving a shit, day after day, about something specific. I don’t think anyone has ever found a way around that and I don’t think anyone will.
