Being a young entrepreneur is all fun and games until you realize you are actually so young and inexperienced than other veterans in the industry.
Sure, you might be ambitious and have the right education, but what you might lack is work and life experience, comparing to those who’ve been in the business for more than twenty years.
That’s a bit scary, right?
But there’s no reason to be frightened, as you will eventually get there, especially if you like reading books. It will be a long ride, but thankfully, there so many great books that will make the process of getting there more enjoyable.
Nowadays, there are so many free resources available, you only need a desire. From all of the resources you can find out there to expand your knowledge, my favorite one is through reading books.
