288: What I've Learned and Applied for 49 Awesome Entrepreneurs - Part 5

<p>At the end of nearly every episode of The Side Hustle Show, I ask my guests for their #1 tip for Side Hustle Nation. There’s always a great variety of responses, and I wanted to take some time today to go through some of my favorites from the past 50-ish interviews.</p> <p>This has become an annual tradition on the show, and we just passed 5 years and 5.5 million downloads!</p> <p>If you like this short-and-sweet meta-style show, be sure to check out the others in this series:</p> <ul> <li><a href= "https://www.sidehustlenation.com/ive-learned-applied-49-awesome-entrepreneurs/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Episode 50</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.sidehustlenation.com/124" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Episode 124</a></li> <li><a href= "https://www.sidehustlenation.com/ive-learned-applied-49-awesome-entrepreneurs-part-3/"> Episode 177</a></li> <li><a href= "https://www.sidehustlenation.com/what-ive-learned-and-applied-from-49-awesome-entrepreneurs-part-4/"> Episode 236</a></li> </ul> <p>And even though my primary motivation is to extract helpful tactics for you, the listener, I can’t help but learn from my guests as well. You never know when inspiration will strike or where you’ll hear the one insight that has a huge impact.</p> <p>These episodes are a lot of fun to put together, and give me an excuse to revisit some of my favorite moments and wise words from the show.</p> <p>From the last 49 guests, the 3 most common #1 tips I heard were:</p> <ol> <li>Take action; learn as you go.</li> <li>Be persistent. It doesn't happen overnight.</li> <li>Charge more. Don't undervalue yourself.</li> </ol> <p>While those might sound overly generic, don’t be quick to dismiss them. If all these really smart and successful people keep saying these episode after episode as their “#1 tip,” I think they’re worth paying attention to.</p> <p>What action can you take today to apply those tips?</p> <p><strong>My #1 Tip this time? Make progress every day.</strong></p>
