Summary

Today's question comes from Matt, who asks which bloggers have influenced me and my sites. In this episode I talk about just-in-time learning. I was inspired to get started by Internet Business Mastery (http://www.internetbusinessmastery.com/). Darren Rowse has always been inspiring and has provided a great example (http://problogger.com/). The first person to share me with their audience was Yaro Starak (https://www.entrepreneurs-journey.com/). Tim Ferriss (http://fourhourworkweek.com/), Ramit Sethi (http://www.iwillteachyoutoberich.com/), and Lewis Howes (http://lewishowes.com/) have inspired me to grow my business. Adam Braun has inspired me toward greater philanthropy (http://www.smartpassiveincome.com/changing-the-world/), including through Pencils of Promise (https://pencilsofpromise.org/). I'm also inspired by Elon Musk (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elon_Musk). Do you have a question about getting your business started? Record it at http://www.askpat.com/.
