Summary
Recently in our Facebook group (facebook.com/groups/mysilentteam ) there was a post submitted by yet another student who had achieved a new benchmark in his Amazon business. Many encouraging replies were quickly posted below the initial success story.
One comment stood out though as a member of our group replied simply, "don't believe the hype."
We weren't sure what to make of this statement initially, so we asked for further clarification. The seemingly skeptical contributor explained that the economy is in such rough shape that he doesn't believe anyone can build a business in the current environment. Do you agree? If so, what do you make of the hundreds of recent success story interviews that you can find on this very podcast and in our Facebook group? Is it true that you can't build something significant during a time of adversity? Let's talk about these questions for a few minutes today.
