## Resource

Think you don’t have enough time to start a business? When I started my first business, I wasn’t sitting around with unlimited time to work on it. I was juggling part-time jobs while building something that went on to make $3.5 million in its first year. In this episode, I’m sharing how I made it work - and how I see our Make It Happen students building businesses around jobs, families and already busy lives. I get into prioritising the work that actually moves your business forward, making better use of the time you already have and why waiting for the “perfect time” to start can keep you stuck for years. You don’t necessarily need more time. You need to decide what you’re going to do with the time you have. Ready to start building?
