The Dark-sides of Entrepreneurship and Selling on Amazon FBA - EP124

Quitting your job to start your on online business can be a very exciting thing. Selling on Amazon FBA can be very financially rewarding and can literally change your life. There are a lot of positives to being your own boss and working from home. While the freedom to travel and live the laptop lifestyle often appears glamorous for many reasons there are actually a lot of drawbacks and negatives that you need to be aware of.

In this podcast I share some of the dark sides of becoming an online entrepreneur. Most people in our community don't often talk about these things so I figured I would share my point of view on the topic.

TOPICS DISCUSSED:

ENTREPRENEURSHIP IS LONELY

Lack of daily human interaction
Traditional employment offers more daily interaction and socializing
Depression is high for entrepreneurs
Work in coffee shops, co-working spaces and attend meetups

WORK LIFE BALANCE IS HARD

Being a business owner requires lots of time commitment
Work to build a schedule that allows for free time as needed
Have designated work areas and non work areas in your house

BEING YOUR OWN BOSS IS NOT FOR EVERYONE

You need to create your own structure and plan your time wisely
Holding yourself accountable can be challenging
Working for a traditional employer creates automatic structure and accountability

MISC ISSUES

You need to buy your own healthcare coverage which can be expensive
Poor eyesight and poor health from sitting and staring at a screen all day
It's important to schedule time to exercise weekly
Your health is your wealth
