If you start a business only for the money, you ll never make any money. Most people that are successful in business started the business because they couldn t do anything else and it had nothing to do with money. It s the fact that they wanna see something that exists, or build a business the way they felt they should see the business being built. And it s not even like something innovative. It might've been an HVAC company that decided the way they re running their business, I don t agree with it. I wanna do it a better way. It might be the way you treat your people. It may be the customers you serve. There s something where you can t help yourself but create a business. But money is a secondary reason, not the primary one.
