Well today I figured I'd give you just a bit more insight on some of my past business experience as a teen. And today I'll go over my first business which was mowing grass. Pretty predictable and boring right? Well that might be true... Okay it's very true, but that's exactly why I got the job. Not everything you do will be something you LOVE to do, but guess what, it made the money and gave me the experience. Mowing lawns on the riding lawnmower I used made me 10 dollars an hour. This money I also had to use to pay for my lawnmowers gas. But hey!! It's a profit right? and at 10 years old that was good enough for me! So for the rest of that summer I mowed lawns and had plenty of business just because I was a cute, greedy, hardworking little youngster. Granted I might not have made enough money to get you rich, but what I did do was make a connection. Turns out two of my lawn mowing customers owned landscaping businesses. And that will lead to my next job.So always remember that what you might be doing right now may not be making you the most money but it very well could be that what your doing for someone now no matter what it is could creating a new new customer for a future business of yours or they themselves could hire you for something bigger and better yet. And don't forget to always be courteous and do well at whatever the task is at hand..... To Be Continued.
Yours Truly,
JM
