Читать книгу Single. Women. Entrepreneurs. Second Edition - Erin Albert - Страница 34

You have to definitely have the mindset of an entrepreneur. My mom always says that she wants to start a business, and each time I tell her I am going to do this or that, the first question she asks me is if I’m getting paid for it. When you start, you might have to get out and give your skills away for a while. Savings or another income would be helpful, but that’s not always a luxury for a single woman.

Also, I would recommend that she talk to someone in the industry who is willing to give her some insight, that way she’ll know what she’s really getting herself into. At one point, I thought I wanted to be lawyer, so I went to work for a law firm. After that, I was like—HELL NO, I don’t want to be a lawyer! I’m glad I had that experience. Just work or intern in the field you’re thinking about, because it might not be what you think it is.
